Modern Times

Are you an alien
Are you from this earth
Would you care to tell me
Details of birth
Did you just emerge from thin air
Can you even tell me
Are you really there
Jet age dreams
From days gone by
The circle in te forest
Where they dnced beneath the sky
...beneath the sky...
Beneath the sky

Do you know my thoughts
Can you read my mind
Would you dare to tell me
What it is you find
Come on now tell me what you find
What lays hidden in my mind
I can see through you
I can hear you too
I can feel you touch my mind

Did they paint your face
In ancient times
Were they talking 'bout you
In celtic rhymes
Can i just reach out
Pull back the shroud
Would you let me hold you
Would it be allowed

Are you the legend
Did they call you seer
Would you let me hold you
Would ou disappear...
Alien...

Her mamma don't like it
There's not a lot that she can do
Her daddy don't like it
She's stayin' out till after two

She likes to go her own way
Wild, reckless and bold
You can't hold her down boy
With diamond ring or fools gold

Chorus
She's free so free
Free free free runnin' like a wild child
Free free free you kinda gotta like her style
Free free free don't she make you wanna smile

She likes ti feel the night time
That is when she gets her kicks
Anytime's the right time
Cause just can't get enough of it

Repeat chorus

She'll get your temperature risin'
Like no othre girl you've known
She's full of surprises
Livin' in he danger zone

Repeat chorus

When i was a young boy i drove my mother crazy
When i was a young man i drove my teachers wild
Oh whoa oh whoa nobody to con-trol me
Oh whoa modern lover i need you near me

Chorus
Never want to leave ya
Never want to leave ya
Never want to leave ya
No no no no no

Reality anonymous is comin' after me
They want me shakin' they want me screamin'
Outside 12 year olds are carryin' machine guns
They give the orders i must be dreamin'

Everywhere i go 'n' everything i see
It's all startin' to look like
Some strange mythology
Where is the spirit where is the fire

Repeat chorus

And then i broke in two
Ya don't really think everything is really
The way you thought you thought it was did you
I broke in two but now i think it's time to move

Move
Move
Move
Move me

Watch out
Machine gun machine gun
Oh whoa oh whoa nobody to control me
Oh whoa oh whoa nobody to convince me
That everything is just gonna be o-k

Never gonna leave ya
Never gonna leave ya
Never gonna leave ya
No no no no no
No no no no no
No no nobody to control me

Go on out and gain the world
But don't you lose your soul
While you're trying
Your truth is changing every day
But your heart will let you
Know when you're lying
Well, you're running
Running from me now
Running like you've got a race to win
Now you tell me our romance is over
Time for you to start again

Chorus
Save your love and tenderness
Don't get lost in bitterness
Save the dreams you had when we started
Do the things you have to do
But don't forget the love we knew
Don't lose your love cause we've parted

You say you can't tell right from wrong
Confusion's pulled the reins tight in your soul
Tight in your soul
Think it's all going to make sense
That accomplishments are gonna make you whole
Following
Following confusion
Running from someone who looks like me
Stop and take a look inside you
Now you tell me who it is you see

Repeat chorus
