1. _ You Are Beautiful To Me
Can't tell you how many times i've wanted to hold you
Can't tell you how many dreams how many fantasies
As i count down the hours and i count down the seconds
Will i be able to say will i be able to say
You are beautiful to me
You are sexual to me
Still a mystery
You are woman
Sometimes i wonder if this love will ever find expression
Does a seed in winters arms know of springs intention
Two spirits dancing through a body conversation
Is this light years away will i be able to say
You are beautiful to me
You are sexual to me
Still a mystery
You are woman

2. _ Don't Be Part Of It
Save
Save
Save from the butchers knife
Save from the experiments
Chorus
Don't be part of it
Don't be part of the killing
Don't be part of it
Don't be part of the killing
Save from the furriers track
Save from extinction
Share a right to life
As long as there are slaughter houses
There will be battle fields
As long as animals die in testing
We won't find humanity
Save
Save from the factory farms
Save from the cruelty
As long as there are slaughter houses
There will be battle fields
As long as animals die in testing
We won't find humanity
Save
Don't be part of it
Save
Don't be part of the killing

3. _ Blue
Lay at my side and shut out the world
Warm this cold heart and wrap me in love
Pour magic into a space made for you
Lifetimes of longing are to live through
Blue blue blue blue blue blue
All of my life i've hungered for you
All my lost days of dreaming are through
Riding the clouds on a mission of schemes
Now you are here oh how simple it seems
Blue blue blue blue blue blue
Blue is my world cold is my name
Love was my problem with no one to blame and you
Taught me how to see light shine in me
Light is reflected so easily
I said blue no more blue don't say good-bye
You leave me breathless with nothing to say
Turned me burned me and blew me away
And if you leave like a ghost without trace
This night of love means a world i can face
Blue blue blue blue blue blue
Holding you close timeless together
Heaven just spoke freeze this moment forever and
All other images fall from my eyes
Love you have come to me straight from the skies
I said blue no more blue
I said blue no more blue don't say good-bye
I will always know that love can live

4. _ Change The Man
Don't talk to me about ban the bomb
Don't talk to me about who's side i'm on
Replace the system with one just the same
Don't you know that we are all to blame
It's so easy as an armchair blamer
Get off your seat and make a personal change sir
Can't change the system by smashing it down
Inside route personal revolution
Chorus
Change the man
Rip out the root
Let's get rid of this insanity
When the mothers had told the kids straight
When the fathers felt no more hate
When a man can walk down the street without fear
Then thing must change and it's not too late

5. _ Learning How To Love
Creeping through your bedroom door
Just after all the lights go out
Feeling the warmth of your body
And the sweetness of your mouth
Set the alarm again for 5 am
Uneasy sleep will soon be following
Creeping back to my own bed again
I will see you in our uneasy morning
Chorus
Learning how to love
Learning how to love
Learning how to love
Learn how to love
Sitting down at breakfast time
A silence always fills the air
Many things that should be said
Are ending in a vacant stare
And they know just what is going on
But make us feel like we are criminals
Our only wish is learning how to love
Just a small word would make us feel it's natural
Set the alarm again for 5 am
Uneasy sleep will soon be following
Creeping back to my own bed again
I will see you in our uneasy morning

6. _ You Say
It's a cold world, it's a cruel world
When you haven't got no one to love
And all that poison builds up in your heart
Like a cancer killing a dove
You gotta stop that life [turning/turn it] upside down
You gotta find someone to take care of
I say, you're special
No one's ever felt this way
Life is so lonely
When you won't decide to stay
Here comes the [cruel/thrill] man [that/but don't] turn around
Like a spoke turning on the wheel
And it comes and it goes and nobody knows
If it's fake or if it's for real
When you find someone with a light in their eyes
And your heart you know they will steal
You say, i'm special
No one's ever felt this way
Life is so lonely
When you won't decide to stay
And when it comes to the end of day
And you lie sleeping here next to me
I look to you, and [some would say/softly say]:
Am i dreaming or are you really there?
I can't eat, i can't sleep
The face [around a fall/a rounded foe]
You say, i'm special
No one's ever felt this way
Life is so lonely
When you won't decide to stay
You say, you're special
No one's ever felt this way
Life is so lonely
When you won't decide to stay

7. _ New Man
No, he won't go drinkin' with his friends no more
Yes, he will do his share of all the chores
He feels guilty about the kids he doesn't see
But he'll try to make it up to the family
Yes, he understands you need your room to breathe
Yes, of course he'll do the minding in your hour of need
No, he won't start leering when your friends [go/come] 'round
No, he won't go to those shows when he's out of town
Chorus
Yes, he's a new man, he's the rage
Yes, he's a new man, turned a new page
No, he won't try to make out that he's the boss
He will try to [show a/share the] love, and share the cost
No, he won't override you if you're not in the mood
He will try to adopt a [tender/gentle] attitude

8. _ Rubber Morals
Quickly checking what company he's in
Absorbing values like a chameleon
His rhythm and his method have got out of line
When you sit on a fence you get a sore behind
Must not upset the apple cart
He'll choose your views today
Having some kinda conflict
Seems to get right in his way
Chorus
Whoa...rubber morals
Whoa...rubber morals
Whoa...rubber morals, plasticine ideals
See how this one feels
The men in st. peters will not agree to a slipping
On his conscience like he slips on a johnnie
He's a part time socialist and a part time tycoon
Flags of convenience fly in his cocoon
Must not upset the apple cart
Preserve the status quo
His heart felt convictions
Left a long time ago
A sign over his bed will testify
Is there nothing in his life from which he'd live or die
A pale shade of grey lines a vacant head
With our condom-nation you are blessed
Must not upset the apple cart
He'll choose your views today
Having some kinda conflict
Seems to get right in his way

9. _ Dig This Well Deep
With one thing and another
Banged my head against the wall
Always looking over my shoulder
And it makes no sense at all
Chorus
I'm going to dig this well deep
It's a promise i must keep
I'm going to dig this well deep
'cos i want to find water
I'm going to dig this well deep
Going to sow before i reap
I'm going to dig this well deep
'cos i want to find water
Cynics try to hold me in the graveyard of their egos
Put my dreams out with the trashman and they left me on a plateau
Holding on and keeping strong
When you are walking on a tightrope
Holding on and keeping strong
When you are wilted down to your last last hope
See it through to a conclusion even if it leads to nowhere
Sometimes there is no solution but the water tastes as good there

10. _ Let It Flow
Where are the new rebels
We didn't ask for this
Trying to be something different
We will fight the bigots
Fight them with our reason
Fight them with our constancy
Chorus
River, our river, let it flow
This is our lamp light
Let it glow
River, river, let it flow
This is our reason
Let it grow
Don't keep looking back
Living in the past
Never built a golden future. have,
Have faith in the species
We've come to far to fail
I don't believe in our extinction
Everyone of us
Has got to take it on
Don't build a dam on evolution. there,
There are those who'd like us
To cling on to the past
Wallowing in their past glories
River, (don't)
Our river, (don't look back)
Let it flow (we might fall)
This is our lamp light
Let it glow (have faith in the future)
River, (don't)
River, (don't look back)
Let it flow (we might fall)
This is our reason
Let it grow

11. _ Left No Evidence
Out of time and no one noticed
Rubbing up a different way
Out of step but still in focus things to say
Kicking out the social pressure
Holding on to what you feel
Being you was never easy
Sliding off the the ferris wheel
Small was beautiful to you
Things are on a micro scale
Turned your back on power and glory
Yours was such a personal tale
Dancing to a different step now
Choose you're beats along the way
Nothing arrives at you're house packaged
No glittery wrap to throw away
Cutting different shapes and sizes
Bringing tomorrow into today
No one noticed you as you snuck in the sideline and talked in a quiet way
No bullshit no theatrics no pretence and left no evidence
You left no evidence
You left no evidence

12. _ Takin' The Time
You're working overtime
You know it doesn't do you no good
You're slaving away for things that you need
Roof is falling down on 'round your head
You're backed against the wall
Living your whole damn life
At someone else's beck and call
On the edge of the [night/knife]
Aaaaahhhh, come on
Come in, you're bruised and battered
You need some time to heal
Step out of the bullet train
Set yourself down, i know how you feel
Slow down your racing pulses
Overthrow all your of fears
For an hour, be a simple man
And i'll be a good set of ears
Aaaaahhhh, come on
Chorus
Takin' the time to look
Takin' the time to feel
[when/will] you rewrite your open book
Allow the scars to heal
Takin' the time to look
Takin' the time to feel
[when/will] you rewrite your open book
Allow the scars to heal
You're movin' heaven and earth
And straining every nerve
Always working double time
Burn the midnight oil down to the last [resort/resolve/result]
You can't go your [snowy/showy room] anymore
Wind your smoked glass windows down
If you can't handle opening the door
Aaaaaahhhh, come on
Chorus
Takin' the time to look
Takin' the time to feel
[when/will] you rewrite your open book
Allow the scars to heal
Takin' the time to look
Takin' the time to feel
[when/will] you rewrite your open book

13. _ Power Of The Media
Flying through the airwaves
Living through the printed word
Flasher in the living room
Guru of the seen and heard
Who decides what we get to hear
Fuzzy round the edges or making it clear
Blinding us with those facts
Chorus
The power of the media will make up our minds
The power of the media will take down our minds
Written on the black and white page
We can't believe what we read
Tarting up reality has become the new rage
Who said the truth is stranger than fiction
A few white lies for a nice little sensation
Buy up a paper you can influence the nation
Little box in the corner
A picture worth a thousand words
But who chooses which pictures we see
Who decides on the commentary
Keeping people in a state of confusion
There's a thin line between facts and illusion
Diverting our attention from big brother in the city
When will we get to the real nitty gritty

Will the moon keep shining on
Can you stop the world from turning
Stop running away from things that might fail you
You have what you need you are the one
You can't hold a person down
'cos the truth will find its opening
You must take it on the things you must feel
We all feel the same you are the one
Chorus
Roll right up and feel it see the world
Prison doors are open wide
See the world you need it
You were born with something special
You were forged in open fire
Stop running away form things that might fail you
You have what you need you are the one

16. _ Other People Are Us
By umberto tozzi
As sung by howard jones
I've never been more lonely.
The night is closing in.
I wish for monday morning and the people of the town to heal me,
Opening themselves
Like flowers to a cruel sun.
Going thru the motions
With no chance to show their deep emotion.
Chorus
When they sing and cry
When they live and die
Can't we see other people, those people are us
Angels live inside
Vultures try to hide
In the mirrors we see other people are us
The walls are falling down with the breath of an idea.
See allah in the church and jesus in the mosque.
Our world is turning.
Heros leave behind miles (minds?) of prejudice.
Cowards try to hold the easiness of our division.
Chorus
As the swallows fly thru leaves of africa
Do they cry as they witness our tears?
Will the hands of needs become the hand of greed?
There will be a time when those people are us.
Chorus x2
Living in the world of isolation
Of comfort and tranquility
But sooner or later in this whole world, those people are us
Chorus
Yes, we are all the same
The nations of the world
Young ones trapped by chemicals, no hope to carry on
The working families
Replaced by metal men
Travelers from the east in their suburban reservations
We are the victims
Of the ruling hands
There will come a time when those people are us
Chorus

17. _ Over And Above
Half past 12 on a friday night everything's wrong and it doesn't feel right
Tried to talk to someone in the bar she didn't like my face i didn't get far
When you grow up you're gonna walk big strides just like me
When you grow up you're gonna hit the big time wait and see
And i listened to his guiding voice like a man who overhears god
Over and above what i'm capable of
You couldn't take the weight of my purest innocence
Over and above what i'm capable of
You couldn't take the weight of my purest innocence
Are you over
So tall daddy used to tower above him symbol of unreachable
Time fades icons of perfection cruel result but not intention
His values are not the ones i choose he's failed in himself
In the blaze of his pride an independence expressed
Not there is no guiding voice like a man who loses god
Over and above what i'm capable of
You couldn't take the weight of my purest innocence
Over and above what i'm capable of
You couldn't take the weight of my purest innocence
Are you over
And a man can't understand his father 'til he becomes a father too
Now his own son's expectation becomes his own hearts burden new
Dad i didn't understand the pressure could it bring them back together
Over and above what i'm capable of
You couldn't take the weight of my purest innocence
Over and above what i'm capable of
You couldn't take the weight of my purest innocence

18. _ Let The Spirit Carry Me
People come together its time for a union
C'mon c'mon c'mon lets do it right
When the darkness takes control and we lose the reason
C'mon c'mon c'mon lets see the light
Well let the faith shine down on me and let the spirit carry me
To a place where the stars don't know your name
To a town where the children fly
To a city where love comes naturally
In a country where devils die
I want to be there one more time
When my brain is on the floor i need you to help me
C'mon c'mon c'mon don't watch me die
And a friend is someone that you allow to help you
Carry me back carry me back hear me cry
Well let the faith shine down on me and let the spirit carry me
And i dreamt of a love that knows no gain
And our guilt didn't paralyse
Men and women and children can walk free
In the world where our devils die
I want to be there one more time
I want to be there one more time, i want to be there one more time
To a place where the stars don't know you're name
To a town where the children fly
To a city where love comes naturally
In a country where devils die
I want to be there one more time
Well let the faith shine down on me and let the spirit carry me

A few white lies for a nice little sensation

Who decides on the commentary?
Keeping people in a state of confusion

When will we get, when will we get to the real nitty gritty,
Nitty gritty, nitty gritty
When will we get to it, when will we get to it now, when will we get to

20. _ You Can Say It's All Over
You took the love i offered
I tried the life that you lead
The truth was told and forgiven
You sold the strength that i need
Now i can see that all you wanted
Was someone you could hold a mirror to
This mirror shattered into pieces
You didn't want to really make things true
And the blame that you offered
Is something i didn't need
When the truth beads were counted
Is it you that i freed
And i can say that it's all over
And i can say that i don't want it too
I found that when i'm in your presence
That i could reach the highest side of you
And you can say it's all over baby
And you can say it's all over now
One more chance is what i stopped saying
A colder place to lay my head
Now it's over and truth is bragging
An empty heart and a single bed
And i can say it's all over
Well you can say that you don't want it too
I found that now i've lost your presence
Love doesn't always let you see right through
And you can say it's all over baby
And you can say it's all over now
And you can say it's all over baby
And you can say it's all over now

21. _ Cookin' In The Kitchen
I met an alien one night while i was walking after dark
He said don't be afraid i've come to know i've come to make my mark
And there's a road, and its very long
And you gotta be sweet baby
And you gotta be strong
He said why are these men and women lying here just on the street
He said why are these children dying cos' they have no food to eat
And there's a road, and its very long
And you gotta be sweet baby
And you gotta be strong
Why are these people hating others for the colour of their skin
Why are your brother creatures murdered for the flesh that lies within
Don't lose the rage, don't become immune
When others criticise you
Don't change your tune
You've got to love, with a passion that hurts
It's love that conquers baby
Its love that serves
And in the moment before you go to sleep
You can turn on me i'm the blue light wrap me round you
And when the world turns its coldest shoulder
In the name of all that's good
And there's a road, and its very long
And you gotta be sweet baby
And you gotta be strong
And i'll be there, to dry your tears
And i'll be cooking in your kitchen
Food for everyone
And ill be working in the backroom
Help for everyone
