1. _ Don't Go
Came in from the city walked into the door
I turned around when I heard the sound of footsteps on the floor
Love just like addiction now I'm hooked on you
I need some time to get it right
Your love gonna see me through
[Chorus:]
Can't stop now
Don't you know I ain't never gonna let you go
Don't go
Baby make your mind up give me what you got
Fix me with your lovin' shut the door and turn the lock
Hey go get the doctor, doctor came too late
Another night I feel alright my love for you can't wait
[Chorus]
Came in from the city walked into the door
I turned around when I heard the sound of footsteps on the floor
Said he was a killer, now I know it's true I'm dead when you walkout the door
Hey babe I'm hooked on you
[Chorus]
Don't go, don't go, don't go

2. _ Anyone
Fate took a freeway to my room
Said to much while he stayed
And left too soon.
Bright on an evening sea,
He washed in with the tide
Deep in each other's dreams
Where all but dreams had died.
Wretched in your thoughts
Gentle hate within the love you bought.
Words fade like flowers shadowed
There beneath your wall
Wind cries from every angle
Dead leaves left to wait for fall.
And in my darkest hour
When I can find no light
My goals are out of sight
And nothing warms the night.
I close my eyes
And with such sweet surprise
I can be anywhere
I can be anyone.
And in my darkest hour
When I can find no light
My goals are out of sight
And nothing warms the night.
I close my eyes
And with such sweet surprise
I can be anywhere
I can be anything
I can be anyone
I can be anyone.

3. _ Tuesday
Woman of thirty seeing the sun
Packed up her suitcase started to run
Looking for someone looking for none
Pack up and drive away
It was her birthday Tuesday morning
Realization gradually dawning
A man in a gray suit whispered 'I'm calling'
Pack up and drive away
Woman of thirty, husband and kids chained like a dog she had to rid
No point in coping off came the lid
Pack up and drive away
Three thousand miles of honesty dreaming
Perfect imagery is a gleaming
No more shattered clouds were deeming
Pack up and drive away
In her heart it wasn't easy
Mumbled words and feeling dizzy
Reasons fight against excuses driving slower she was losing
Dream was stirring only dozing
Eyelids awaken to the daydream
Just an illusion broken sunshine
Woman of thirty there's no choice
I can't help our helpless voice
|
4. _ Situation
Blue eyed dressed for every situation
Moving through the doorway of a nation
Pick me up and shake the doubt
Baby I can't do without
[Chorus:]
Move out, don't mess around
Move out, you bring me down
Move out, how you get about
Don't make a sound just move out
I remember only for an hour
Move right through me can you feel the power
I don't know what's going on
It scares me but it won't take long
[Chorus]
Now he's in control he is my lover
Nations stand against him he's your brother
Been a long time, been a long time now
I'll get to you somehow
[Chorus]
|
5. _ Mr. Blue
Winter sounds the crying
Like an old man slowly dying
And the only sound, the wind that fills the trees
Even colder comes the moon
And though it never seems too soon
A sudden stillness as the rainfall starts to freeze
[Chorus: x 2]
I'm Mr. Blue
I'm here to stay with you
And no matter what you do
When you're lonely - I'll be lonely too
A young girl, she is shaded
Bears the scars that never faded
Of the baby that was born on Christmas Day
While the heavens sing their song
A child's life is never long
'Cause the food supplies will only last a day
[Chorus: x 2]
Patriot emotion, is the cause of the commotion
After all there's really no-one here to blame
Soldiers taking orders, 'cos we must defend the borders
Of our nation (and the other side's the same)
[Chorus]
I'll come to you at night
When all the world is sleeping tight
And lie beside you, 'til the early morning dew
You can't hear me, you can't see
But you can feel me when you read
The folded letter she left addressed to you
[Chorus]
|
6. _ Unmarked
Go and join the army
Said the father to the son
See the world around you boy
And learn to use a gun
Think you're something special
Well, we'll make you just the same
There's nothing wrong in dying
After all, it's just a game
Just a game.
Read the morning paper
There's a picture of a cross
"we were proud in them days"
By the way, I think you lost
Trust me when I tell you boy
That god is on our side
Even Jesus cheers us on
Against the other side
Against the other side.
He who shouts the loudest
Is the one who's in control
We who never listen
Are the ones who pay the toll
Tell us that it's time at last
To make a final stand
I'm glad 'cause all I wanted
Was to kill another man
Just to kill another man.

7. _ Only You
Looking from a window above, it's like a story of love
Can you hear me
Came back only yesterday
I'm moving further away
Want you near me
[Chorus:]
All I needed was the love you gave
All I needed for another day
And all I ever knew
Only you
Sometimes when I think of her name when it's only a game
And I need you
Listen to the words that you say it's getting harder to stay
When I see you
[Chorus]
This is going to take a long time and I wonder what's mine
Can't take no more
Wonder if you'll understand it's just the touch of your hand
Behind a closed door
[Chorus]
|
8. _ Ode To Boy
When he moves I watch him from behind
He turns and laughter flickers in his eyes
Intent and direct when he speaks, I watch his lips
And when he drives I love to watch his hand
White and smooth almost feminine, almost American, I have to watch him.
[Chorus:]
In his face age descends on youth, exaggeration on the truth
He caught me looking then but soon his eyes forgot
And everything he seems to do reflects just another shade of blue
I saw him searching into you and ached a while
I watch his lips caress the glass,
His fingers stroke its stem and pass
To lift a cigarette at last, he dries his eyes
From a shadow by the stair
I watch as he weeps unaware
That I'm in awe of his despair, but I am there
[Chorus]
|
9. _ Goodbye 70's
|
10. _ Winter Kills
Green in your love on bright days
You grew sun blind you thought me unkind
To remind you how winter kills
Lost in daydreams you drove too fast and got nowhere
You rode on half fare when you got too scared
How winter kills
Tear at me searching for weaker seams
Pain in your eyes make me cruel
Make me spiteful tears are delightful welcome your nightfall
How winter kills
I'll tear at you searching for weaker seams
How winter kills
|
11. _ Too Pieces
Write me a letter a face in the hall
Hiding from someone afraid of the fall
And she's waiting for someone to take her back to where she came from
And she'll wait alone for hours she won't mind because there's someone
In the story she remembers she remembers in the letter
And the tears locked up inside her make her heart break open wider
Shuts her eyes and takes the picture from the wall
|
12. _ Midnight
Midnight it's raining outside he must soaking wet
Everyone is sleeping tight
God knows I tried my best
Darling you know it looks bad
Just lost the best thing that I ever had
Still I don't know why I did him wrong
It's too late now he's gone to say
[Chorus:]
Baby oh no, can't leave me now
Said think about it please
'cause I love you and I need you
And I should have thought of that before I did you wrong
Heartache, heartache, yeah
When I saw his face I could see how bad I'd let him down
Cheating when he was working hard, I just had to mess around
I knew from the start he ain't got much money
I should have stayed content with all that good sweet honey
He's a good strong man and I love him so so how on earth can I let him go
[Chorus]
And now it's midnight it's raining outside
And I'm soaking wet, still looking for that man of mine
And I ain't found him yet
Well all of this rain can wash away my tears
But nothing can replace all of those wasted years
In all of this I tell you I have learnt
Playing with fire gets you burnt
And I'm still burning
[Chorus]
You say you'll lose your pride
Well don't you know dear, don't you know
I'll lose so much more if you go now
Oh no
|
13. _ Nobody's Diary
If I wait for just a second more,
I know I'll forget what I came here for,
My head was so full of things to say,
But as I open my lips all my words slip away
And anyway,
I can't believe you want to turn the page,
And move your life onto another stage,
You can change the chapter you can change the book,
But the story remains the same if you'd take a look.
[Chorus:]
For the times we've had I don't want to be, a page in your diary babe,
For the good, the bad I don't want to see, a page in your diary babe,
For the happy, the sad, I don't want to be another page in your diary.
Perhaps if I held you I could win again,
I could take your hands we'd talk and maybe then,
That look in your eyes I always recognize,
Would tell me everything is gonna be fine,
You're gonna be mine
For a long time
[Chorus]
|
14. _ Good Times
Sometimes I feel,
I'll never belong
I want to get there so bad
But it's taking so long
Sometimes I feel
Like letting go
But when it comes right down to it, baby
Who wants to know? (no-one)
[Chorus:]
And I find (for a good time)
I'm knocking for a good time (for a good time)
Now I find (for a good time)
I'm knocking for a good time (for a good time)
Standing on the outside
I'm looking in
Trying to be heard
I don't know where to begin
Help me baby show me how
To be a part of it all and all
Right here, and now
[Chorus]
Hands are full of silver
My pockets full of gold
It's time I'm trying to spend
And I can't get myself sold
I'm a bargain honey
I'm a giveaway
And you can have it all
If you'd use up my day.
[Chorus]
|
15. _ Sweet Thing
Hey, hey, hey, sweet thing
I give in
Sweet thing
I give in (submission)
(don't you want to right it, fight it)
Oh, no, if you don't think it's right
Can't change your mind if I talk all night
(don't you want to right it, fight it)
Oh, no, 'cause nothing now can keep this a good thing.
Hey, hey, hey, sweet thing
I give in
Sweet thing
I give in (submission)
(don't you want to right it, fight it)
Just go.
I don't want to fight
Just take your things
And say goodnight
(don't you want to right it, fight it)
Just go.
'cause nothing now can keep this a good thing.
Hey, hey, hey how could you be so unkind
When you were lying to me all the time
You don't need me now your life is fine
It's your day now, but it's gonna be mine
Oh and what a sweet day.
Hey, hey, hey,
(submission)
(don't you want to right it, fight it)
Oh, no, if you don't think it's right
Can't change your mind if I talk all night
(don't you want to right it, fight it)
Oh, no, 'cause nothing now can keep this a good thing.
Hey, hey, hey how could you be so unkind
When you were lying to me all the time
You don't need me now your life is fine
It's your day now, but it's gonna be mine
Oh and what a sweet day.
Sweet thing, I give in
Sweet thing, I give in
Sweet thing, submission (i give in)
Sweet thing, submission (i give in)
Sweet thing, submission (i give in)

16. _ In My Room
I stand alone and watch the clock
I only wait for it to stop
And in the room locked up inside me
The cutout magazines remind me
I sit and wait alone in my room
And in my room against the wall
There is picture very small
A photograph I took some years ago
It shows a picture of the room I know
I sit and wait alone in my room
[Chorus:]
The walls are white and in the night
The room is lit by electric light
I stand and watch the clock
I only wait for it to stop
The doors are shut and all the windows lock
The only sound is from the clock
I sit and wait alone in my room
[Chorus]
|
17. _ Bring Your Love Down
You say it's time to leave now babe I can't believe
That you have the strength to go now
I won't stand in your way I'd be standing there all day
Ain't that something we both know now
You play your games but the fact remains
I'm the only one that can hold your reins
Didn't I bring your love down
Didn't I bring your love down all night
If you think you need a change well I'm sure we can arrange
For you to get on your own for a while
But I don't need to worry 'cause you'll get back in a hurry
I know that you like my style
You play your games but the fact remains
I'm the only one that can hold your reins
Didn't I bring your love down
Didn't I bring your love down all night
|
18. _ Bad Connection
Morning this morning the curtains are shut
I'll ring you in the morning but the phone's been cut
Can you hear me I've been calling all day
Can you hear me
The radio reporter said the line's all dead
He told me that I oughta write a letter instead
Can you hear I've been calling all day
Can you hear me
[Chorus:]
I'd wish they'd fix the wires cause my baby won't know
That I'm leaving in the morning and I'm ready to go
Can you hear me
Can you hear me at all
Gotta get the operator make a telephone call
And if I write a letter it won't get there on time
I'll only reach you baby on the telephone line
Can you hear me
I've been calling all day
Can you hear me
My car's already and my bags are all packed
I'm late already and I won't be back
Can you hear me
I've been calling all day
Can you hear me
[Chorus]
Oh can you hear me
|
19. _ Walk Away From Love
Move along you're in my way.
I've made my mind up not to stay
And it don't matter what you do
'cause me, I've had enough of you.
And you can talk about the good times
I can just remember bad times.
There ain't nothing left for saying
'cause there's no way that I'll be staying
You tell me to remember
When I told you that I'd never walk away
[Chorus:]
Hey baby, don't walk away from love
Tell me baby, ain't my love enough,
Listen to the things I say
And tell me why do you walk away from love?
Leave you standing on your own
It's time I spent some time alone
Need a while to think this out
Not sure what it's all about.
And it's no use to sit there crying
'cause I can see you're only lying.
Now I'll put the past behind me
Run some place where you can't find me.
You tell me to remember
When I told you that I'd never walk away.
[Chorus]
Bags are packed, I just can't wait.
Gotta get out before it gets too late,
I don't need you any more
And I don't need your love for sure.
And you can talk about the good times
I can just remember bad times.
There ain't nothing left for saying
'cause there no way that I'll be staying
You tell me to remember when I told you that I'd never walk away.
[Chorus]
Don't walk away from love

20. _ State Farm
High & dried, tyre rubber starts burning
Fill her up now before the table starts turning
Souped up, jacked up, cracked up, stacked up
Louie's got the gear
And Charlie's got his back up
And don't it make you feel good?
Says she's a dirt box
You're like a cannibal
Somebody feeds her, sure ain't the State Farm
Who buys the tickets and who buys the clothes
Puts the liquor in her stomach and the powder up her nose
Move. That's right
And don't it make you feel good?
Don't mind me honey
I'm just looking
Smelt your chicken
And I watched you cooking
Souped up, jacked up, cracked up, stacked up
You're a bad stain
And you need to be cleaned up
And don't it make you feel good?
And don't it make you feel good?
