unknown

Written by ricki wilde & mick silver

I had no reason to believe that love was true
Infatuation was a game for lonely fools
I wanted freedom but i guess i always knew
You love would entangle my emotions

I feel the power when i hold you close
Got to feel you, near me, baby
You take me higher than i thought i could go
Can't hide it any longer, i need you to know

Now i'm touched by your magic
At last i can breathe in all of your love
I couldn't hide from the feelings here inside
Cos i've waited so long
This is some kind of magic
I know that to lose your love would be
More than i could bear
I would you anywhere

I can't imagine i could change the way i feel
When i paint a picture of love it's you i'm thinking of
No hesitation, when you call me i'll be there
You know, we've got something to believe in

I never knew it was so easy to love
But i just can't help it, baby
This love is moving and it's out of control
Can't try any harder, i need you to know

Even when the clouds drift across the sky
I know that we'll make it somehow
Together we'll survive
If we only believe in love

This love is loving and it's out of control
Can't try any harder, i need you to know

At last i can breathe in all your love
I couldn't hide from the feelings here
Inside...

Now when we started - no interventions
I wanted everything with no conditions
You took my love and told it to the world
But now it really changes things
The ring you wear belongs to someone else
Somebody else and my heart keeps saying

Hold back - hold back your love
Baby it's just a crazy thing to start
Hold back - hold back your love
Maybe it's just the easy way to part

Hold back - hold back (hold back, hold back...)

No denials - no introspection
I'm not competing for some true perfection
I wanted something that's fine and that's for sure
And now i wonder how she feels
'cos in her heart she knows there's someone else
Somebody else and i hear her saying

Hold back - hold back your love
Baby it's just a crazy thing to start
Hold back - hold back your love
Maybe it's just the easy way to part

Hold back - hold back

Hold back (hold back)
Hold back your love
Hold back (hold back)
Hold back your love
(baby...) hold back (hold back)
Hold back your love
Baby it's just a crazy thing to start

Baby it's just a crazy thing
You gotta hold back - hold back your love
(hold back) - hold back your love
(hold back) - you gotta hold back your love
(ooh) you gotta hold back your love
(ooh) hold back your love
Hold back (hold back)
(ooh)
(ooh)
Hold back
(ad lib to fade)

There's an endless sky and
It's just you and i
You're close to me
We tried to say goodbye but
But we can't be that strong and let it be
Now i know life's changed
And we can't expect to have things like they were before
But you want me, i want you
And there's nothing left for us to do
Before the night is through now

C'mon c'mon c'mon
C'mon c'mon c'mon
And love me, love me
C'mon c'mon c'mon
C'mon c'mon c'mon
And love me, love me

We don't close our eyes we're
Looking deep inside and move so slow
Ooh this is making love it
Feels so good
Oh baby don't let go
When the morning comes
We'll pray the dawn could never break another day
Then we'll kiss, say goodbye
And tomorrow i'll be on my way
But before we're through now

C'mon c'mon c'mon
C'mon c'mon c'mon
And love me, love me
C'mon c'mon c'mon
C'mon c'mon c'mon
And love me, love me

There's a forest, a beautiful place
The sun always shines upon your face
And the wind blows away
The troubles inside your mind

You'll find your secret garden
A place that nobody knows (nobody knows)
Where you can go

(scarlett) the world looks bright today but one day you'll want to cry
(scarlett) (ah-ah) and when your sky looks grey there's one thing i hope you'll know
There's a place you can go

In the distance, your life in the wings
Who knows what emotions it will bring
But the secrets you hold will help you through anything

(ah-ah) you'll find your secret garden
(ah-ah) a place that nobody knows (nobody knows)
Where you can go

(scarlett) the world looks bright today but one day you'll want to cry
(scarlett) (ah-ah) and when your sky looks grey there's one thing i hope you'll know
There's a place you can go

Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh

Oh so don't be afraid
If you trust the voice inside of you
It'll guide you on your way
On your way

Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh

(scarlett) the world looks bright today but one day you'll want to cry
(scarlett) (ah-ah) and when your sky looks grey there's one thing i hope you'll know
(scarlett) you'll find your secret garden, somewhere that you can go
(scarlett) (ah-ah) somewhere where you can grow
Scarlett
There's a place you can go

Ad lib to fade

Featuring you came, you keep me hangin' on, the second time, can't get enough (of your love), never trust a stranger and stone.

All right, it's time to get up and dance a bit
All right!

All right!

All right!

Because you came and changed the way i feel
No-one could love you more
Because you came and turned my life around
No-one could take your place

Someone i know is staring at me
And when i look into her eyes
I see a girl that i used to be
I hardly recognise
Cos in the space of a year
I've watched the old me disappear
All of the things i once held precious
Just don't mean anything anymore
Cos suddenly

You came
You
You
You
Keep me hangin' on

Set me free why don't cha babe
Get out of my life why don't cha babe
'cause you don't really need me
You just keep me hangin' on

You say you still care for me
But your heart and soul needs to be free
And now that you've got your freedom
You wanna still hold on to me
You don't want me for yourself
So let me find somebody else

Set me free why don't cha babe
Get out of my life why don't cha babe
'cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on

Oh
Never trust a stranger with your heart
With your heart

Just do it...

Don't wanna know about vacations in this cheap motel
Don't wanna know about your sea green curtains
Cos all i want 'n' all i need is just some time with you
Don't complicate it - just do it once again

Just go for it
Just go for the second time
Just go for it

Ooh
I can't get enough of your love
Cos it's true
Oh
I can't help myself from crying over you
I can't get enough of your love
Yeah i'm dying cos it's true
I can't get enough of your love

I'm a prisoner who can never leave
Someone that you use anytime you please
But i never want you to set me free
Cos i'm addicted to this love disease

And the fever rages in my soul
Begging you to want me and take control
But come tommorow you'll let me go
To find another foolish heart i know

As i face another lonely night
A different lover will hold you tight
It's not right

I can't help myself from crying over you
I can't get enough of your love
Yeah i'm dying cos it's true
I can't get enough of your love

Never trust a stranger i knew there was a danger
But couldn't resist
The touch of a stranger
The thrill of his kiss
Cos this time
I thought it was love
I thought it was heaven
Having the time of my life
I know it's not true

Oh never trust a stranger with your heart
Oh no, never trust a stranger with your heart

Most people wake
From a nightmare to find
Everything's great
It was all in their mind
So am i still sleeping
Or is this all real
If i keep on pinching myself
Will the fear disappear, oh no

It's like a stone hanging over our heads
Ready to blow
Cos this is our time
You've got to believe
That it's yours and it's mine
(don't you know)
Cos this is your time
You've got to believe
That it's yours and it's mine
(don't you know)

Written by ricki & kim wilde

I can't see your face
Hear the excuses for
The mistakes that you make
I've heard all your lies
I don't know how much i can take
Before i break
I've tried to be so strong
While you broke the promises
All the vows that we made
We know something's wrong
But we carry on anyway
Day by day
You're the one who let me down
And now i find it hard to forgive
In my heart

But i'll try again
To forget all the pain
And love you again
I'll try again
Though you hurt me i know
I can't let you go

How can we forget
The sweetness of yesterday
We just can't let it go
Lost in bitterness
I'm losing my self control
And my soul
Cos you'll be the one who let me down
And now i find it hard to forgive
In my mind

But i'll try again
To forget all the pain
And love you again
I'll try again
Though you hurt me i know
I can't let you go

Oh why, why do we hurt each other more
When there's a way
Cos we never really found
What we were looking for
Can we try again

Cos you're the one who let me down
And now i find it hard to forgive
In my heart

But i'll try again
To forget all the pain
And love you again
I'll try again
Though you hurt me i know
I can't let you go

Ooh, i'll try again

Breakin' away
Breakin' away
It's hard leaving
Walking away from someone just to start again
We are ever needing
Keeping that someone to care just to give us strength
So as life changes with every day
We got to move forward
There's got to be a better way
Start over with every chance
I will be there

Now i'm breakin' away (breakin' away)
All i needed was time and room to grow
I got something to say (breakin' away)
Now i know i can make it on my own
Now i'm breakin'away (yeah, yeah)

It's hard giving
Giving out all that you've got when there's no return
When you find you're living
Living for everyone else there's so much to learn
So as life changes with every day
We got to move forward
There's got to be a better way
Start over with every chance
I will be there

Now i'm breakin' away (breakin' away)
All i needed was time and room to grow
I got something to say (breakin' away)
Now i know i can make it on my own
Now i'm breakin'away (yeah, yeah)

Seems like i've waited
Seems like it's taken forever (just to break free)
It feels like i've wasted my life
Now that we're not together.

Written by ricky, kim & marty wilde

I heard you're out on your own
Guess it's strange now you're living without love
You'd think all those years
Would mean something
But it's over she's had enough
Don't you know it's always hard at the start . . .
To change
When you look round and someone's broken your heart
Afraid to fall in love

She hasn't got time for you
But don't be afraid to fall in love
I think you knew from the start
She would break up your heart
She hasn't got time for you
But honey don't be afraid to fall
Just take a look in my eyes
Come and give it a try

So now she's out on her own
Talking cheap and laughing about your love
The whispers you hear should tell you something
Cos it's over and she's playing rough
Could have told you such a long time ago
You wouldn't listen cos you don't want to know
That she was bad from the start
And now she's breaking your heart

Written by ricky, kim & marty wilde

Back in my younger days
Decided to break away
Get out the door find a place to stay
The folks took it bad you see
The pride in the family
Guess they expected a nurse some day

But we were out there and gunnin'
Fuelled up and runnin'
Out on the highway
Looking for something
Your crazy world does nothing for us
And if we shout you just ignore us
So no more push and shove
The victims of your love

It was back in my younger days
Decided to break away
Get out the door find a place to stay

Cos we were out there and gunnin'
Fuelled up and runnin'
Lost on the highway
Looking for something
Your crazy world does nothing for us
And if we shout you just ignore us
So no more push and shove
The victims of your love

It's something else to see the way you're growing
From a sweet little baby to a grown up girl
And i pray though darlin' i've no way to knowing
That you'll discover a beautiful world

As you skip down the street
And hold your books so tightly
Tell me what are you learning in your abc
Are you dreaming off all the many things you might be
You know that we're just waiting to see

Schoolgirl
You're such an inspiration
Schoolgirl
And you're as fresh as the breeze
You've got the whole world
Just waiting for you
You're really something, something to see

It's easy to worry in a world of trouble
When there's nothing but bad news
Trying to bring you down
But life doesn't have to be unuphill struggle
There's still some wonderful things to be found

There is sadness and confusion in our hearts
And the world prepares to fight
As it tears itself apart - it isn't fair

Written by m. chapman & h. knight

I shake and i shiver when you reach for me
And the pearls on the bottom of the deep blue sea
The way you deliver you could make me free
As i get lost is the riddle of your mystery

Who will you find to love you
Nobody quite like me
It's not the way you walk
Must be the way you talk

So turn it on, turn it on
Baby turn it on
Maybe you need me
Turn it on, when i'm weak
Baby make me strong
Oh when you're gone
I get lost baby i go wrong
So turn it on, let it loose
Baby all night long
If you need me

From the ship i've been sailing
I was cast away
I was slipped off your fingers
And i had to stay
Direction failing and my heart at sea
And that look in your eyes meant for me
Where would i be without you
Why would i ever leave
Could it be the way you touch
You make me want so much

Written by ricky, kim & marty wilde

Well it sounded like a whisper
But soon became a cry
And the moment that i touch you
I know the reason why - we got love
No union is stronger than a woman with a man
I'm gonna give love in the natural way
With everything i can
Never mind if things go wrong
You and i will still be strong
And how i love you now

Oh baby, we're here tonight
We can make it last forever
Wen can make it last for life
Oh, baby, no matter what
I'm gonna give love in the natural way
With everything i got

All times it can be gentle
And at times it can be cruel
It can treat you like a stranger
It can treat you like a fool
But tonight i wanna hold you
Cos tonight you're gonna see
I'm gonna give you love in the natural way
And keep you here with me
Lovin' like you've never known
Now at last we're on our own
And i still love you now

Oh, baby, we're here tonight
We can make it last forever
We can make it last for life
Oh, babe, it's me and you
And it's a natural reaction
When you feel the way we do
What is left that's still unknown
Let's discover on our own

Cos when love's the culmination
Of everything you feel
Well it's the only thing that's precious
It's the only thing that's real

Written by ricki & kim wilde

They say that love is a dangerous thing
And hits your heart like a revolution
And all the pain it can bring
Will only lead to confusion
But now that love has come into my life
We'll i've discovered a different meaning
And there's no danger at all
It's just a beautiful feeling

I konw it's wrong to keep it inside for so long
When we both could see it coming
It was just a matter of time

Time
Falling in love with you was just a matter of time
Falling in love with you

It seems so long ago we were just friends
Different people with different faces
Just getting on with our lives
Isn't it funny how fate is
But i know it's right the way that we're feeling tonight
Cos we both could feel it coming
It was just a matter of time

Time
Falling in love with you was just a matter of time
Baby, i knew with you it was just a matter of time

Something so good was worth waiting for
Now it's easy to say that i love you
When you're feeling it too
Cos we knew in our hearts
That is was just a matter of time
Falling in love with you

Written by ricky & marty wilde

Funny what fate can bring you
And the things that it can do
Funny how life can change you
When you least expect it do

I wasn't into anyone
I danced in a sea of faces
I wasn't into anything
But baby you know
Together we're...

Chorus:
So right
The touch that i get from you's incredible
So right
The touch that i get
When i look at you

Maybe the touch you give me
Is the look i get from you
Maybe the spell it's weaving
Is the way you feel it too

Maybe you'll stop and walk away
Don't look at me to follow
I wouldn't run for anyone
But baby you know
Together we're ...

So right
The touch that i get from you's incredible
So right
The touch that i get
That i get from you

Whatever it is we've got
Well maybe we could find out more about it
Baby we'll create this feeling
Anytime, anytime

I wasn't into anyone
I danced in a sea of faces
I wasn't into anything
But baby you know
Together we're ...

They said "stick with your own kind
You're out of your depth
Think you've had it bad so far
You're not finished yet"
And all she's known is the taste of tears
She's going no - where, can anybody hear

Now she's missing in the eyes of the law
She got out quick, she couldn't take much more
Now she's missing in the eyes of the law
Somebody help her

It's cold in the street
There's a cold in her nose
She's been walking all night
And the rain's soaked her clothes
She doesn't know what she's doing here
She shrugs her shoulders, guess that's the way it goes

And now she's missing in the eyes of the law
She only did it 'cos she wanted much more
And now she's missing in the eyes of the law
Somebody help her
Somebody

Most people wake
From a nightmare to find
Everything's great
It was all in their mind
So am i still sleeping
Or is this all real
If i keep on pinching myself
Will the fear disappear, oh no

It's like a stone hanging over our heads
Ready to blow
Cos this is our time
You've got to believe
That it's yours and it's mine
You can't close your eyes to the lies
Perpetrated by dangerous fools
Cos they're handing out rules
Like a prophecy chiselled in stone
Stone
They're carving out our fate
Why can't they leave us alone
Stone, stone
And messing up the world
They've got to leave it alone

They've signed on some paper
To end all the fear
But this propaganda
Is perfectly clear
They're still building and testing
But what can we do
Condemning the seas
And the land and the trees to a tomb
Oh no

It's like a stone hanging over your heads
Where do we go
Cos this is your time
You've got to believe
That it's yours and it's mine
You can't close your eyes to the lies
Perpetrated by dangerous fools
Cos they're handing out rules
Like a prophecy chiselled in stone

Influences now are things that are all around me
Changing shape as they move around in an open mind
Coloured in by the images i find
I'm just watching for shapes that grow
I'm just watching for shapes that grow
(watching for shapes that grow)

Like electric sparks they danced by an open mirror
Closing doors never looking round but it's not goodbye
They'll be there till i'm taken out i know
I'm just watching for shapes that grow
I'm just watching for shapes that grow
(watching for shapes that grow)

In my mind there's a space that's full of painted pictures
Things i did that i went through, but can't recall
Now and then there's a flash of the unknown
I'm just watching for shapes that grow
I'm just watching for shapes that grow
(watching for shapes that grow)

(watching for shapes that grow)
(watching for shapes that grow)

I'll be true
I won't lie baby
Trust me when i say
You're asking me where is it we go from here
The answer is open in my mind
Who knows where we'll end our journey
Love is a lesson
We're still just learning
But one thing you can be sure of is

I'll be true
I won't lie baby
I'll never lie to you
I'll be true
Trust me when i say
True to you

So many people make the same mistakes
Giving promises they can't keep
And after their hearts are broken
With words they both wish had never been spoken
And lies that they pin their hope on but

I'll be true
I won't lie baby
I'll never lie to you
I'll be true
Trust me when i say
True to you

Love and honesty is what you're gonna get from me
Every step of the way
You can trust me, when i say

I'll be true
I won't lie baby
I'll never lie to you
I'll be true
Trust me when i say
True to you

I won't waste your time baby

Some people don't seem real at all
Unafraid of any mountain
Sure that the gods won't let him fall
Should he fall, he will always get up again

And if he's hurt he never shows it
If he's wrong nobody knows it
Seems like he never has to try
He just must be a lucky guy

And when there's pain he never minds it
When it's lost he always finds it
Nobody really knows just why
He just must be a lucky guy
He just must be a lucky guy
I wish i was that lucky guy

I'm a prisoner who can never leave
Someone that you use anytime you please
But i never want you to set me free
Cos i'm addicted to this love disease

And the fever rages in my soul
Begging you to want me and take control
But come tommorow you'll let me go
To find another foolish heart i know

As i face another lonely night
A different lover will hold you tight
It's not right

I can't help myself from crying over you
I can't get enough of your love
Yeah i'm dying cos it's true
I can't get enough of your love

I'm going crazy can't you see
You're turning every day into misery
Just like murder in the first degree
You're killing something deep inside of me
Cos you don't care if i should live or die
And you don't even attempt to lie
And that's why

I will be there when you call
I will be there

It's so sad
When lovers part
They walk away and break their hearts
Yes i've had my share of tears
I walked away but now i'm here
Cos now that i can see
All the things that you're doing to me

I can't say goodbye
In the night i will be there
I will always stay around
In the day
I will be there when you call
When you call

I will be there when you call
I will be there
If you ever need me baby

I want you to understand
I need you now, i needed you then
Stupid things got in our way
But now i'm coming home to stay
Cos now that i can see
All the things that you're doing to me

I can't say goodbye
In the night i will be there
I will always stay around
In the day
I will be there when you call

Never gonna leave you
Now i'm gonna stay forever
Cos you know i need you
Never gonna leave you
Now i'm gonna stay forever

I can't say goodbye
And you know i tried to walk away
But the feeling deep inside of my soul
Told me to stay
Cos i can't say goodbye

I can't say goodbye
In the night i will be there
I will always stay around
In the day
I will be there if you call
Cos i can't say goodbye

(light of the moon...)

You can't touch it
It won't let you near
You can't hold it
Cos it will disappear
You can't keep it
It don't belong to you
And when you need it
There's nothing you can do
Love has the final word
You're a fool if you can't see
But i know that the light of the moon
Belongs to me

Not the warmth of the sun
Caress of the breeze
Not the sound of the wind
As it blows through the trees
But the light of the moon
Belongs to me
Not the warmth of your smile
Caress of your hand
Not the love that you give me
Again and again
But the light of the moon
Belongs to me

So many people forget it
Set love free
Love is a river
Love is a raging sea
Don't try to tame it
Or you will watch it die
Don't try to chain it
You've got to let it fly
Love has the final word
You're a fool if you can't see
But i know that the light of the moon
Belongs to me

Not the warmth of the sun
Caress of the breeze
Not the sound of the wind
As it blows through the trees
But the light of the moon
Belongs to me
Not the warmth of your smile
Caress of your hand
Not the love that you give me
Again and again
But the light of the moon
Belongs to me

Ooh you say i live in a dream
That i live in a make-beleive
But i know that the light of the moon
Belongs to me

Not the warmth of the sun
Caress of your hand
Not the love that you give me
Again and again
But the light of the moon
Belongs to me

Too much time talking at each other
Seems you've got a different point of view
Lets just relax
Get down to basic facts
I'll tell you just exactly what to do
You want the car, oh yeah
Well every penny in my pocket isn't yours, my friend
I'm gonna do what my mama says, she said

Hit him, hit him in the heart
That's where it's gonna hurt
Hit him, hit him in the heart
Don't let him treat you like dirt

I don't wanna sound like in complaining
But what's it got to do with love at all
It's a private deal
Painful and so real
You make me feel like i just want to crawl
What's yours is yours, oh yeah
If you want to get your bags
Well i'll leave them in the wall
I'm gonna do what my mama says, she said

You've been spreading rumours all about me
But all these things you said are just not true
Sticks and stones
Can break my bones
But boy they're gonna hurt you too
I've got my pride, oh yeah
So i'll just take your heart and beat it black and blue
I'm gonna do what my mama said, she said . . .

Fit in, fit in

I'm spending nights just dreaming
And playing the music loud
They're banging on the ceiling
They're praying that i'll soon be out
I almost thought of leaving
Get away from the glares and their unfriendly stares
And now i'm all alone
And the telephone teases and dares

I'll get away from them all (oh oh)
So pride comes before a fall
But i'm not for giving in
Fit in, fit in

They're kicking up a storm in ...
Some strange place they know out of town
Why won't i go along there
It's crazy they're all doing it now
But right now it's the last place
That i wanna see - it's my way to be free
And i'm getting bored
Of the way they expect me to be

You gotta be, you gotta be

I'll get away from them all (oh oh)
So pride comes before a fall
But i'm not for giving in
Fit in, fit in
Fit in, fit in

I'm holding on so tightly
But i don't want to take any more
'cos what they say just bites me
And gets to me down to the core
A ring and kids invite me
Or a house and a home
And a car and a phone
And a video
Won't they ever leave it alone
You gotta ring, you gotta ring

I'll get away from them all (oh oh)
So pride comes before a fall
But i'm not for giving in

I won't fit in, fit in
I don't fit in, fit in
I don't fit in, fit in
I don't fit in, fit in
Oh no, i don't fit in, fit in

(i'm gonna stay... (i'm gonna stay...))

The pain inside
When you think you love another
But can't decide which way to go
And you're searching for a reason to leave his side
In time you'll see
It has to be this way
And though it hurts to say
I'm gonna be staying with my baby

(i'm gonna stay... (i'm gonna stay...))
I know he's good for me
I can see that he's feeling down
(i'm gonna stay... (i'm gonna stay...))
But i know he cares for me
And in time he will come around
So dry your eyes, before you turn away
You must know that i'll always love you
But now, i'm staying with my baby

You used to say
I should maybe take it further
And leave one day
My family - but i'm responsible for them
They depend on me
So now you see, our love is history
I'm sad it has to end
But i'm gonna be staying with my baby

(i'm gonna stay... (i'm gonna stay...))
I know he's good for me
I can see that he's feeling down
(i'm gonna stay... (i'm gonna stay...))
But i know he cares for me
And in time he will come around
So dry your eyes, before you turn away
You must know that i'll always love you
But now, i'm staying with my baby
(i'm staying with my baby... yes i am)

Please understand
He's just a desperate man
Who's doing all he can
So i'm going back

(i'm gonna stay... (i'm gonna stay...))
I know he's good for me
I can see that he's feeling down
(i'm gonna stay... (i'm gonna stay...))
But i know he cares for me
And in time he will come around
(i'm gonna stay... (i'm gonna stay...))
I'm gonna stay
(i'm gonna stay... (i'm gonna stay...))
I'm gonna stay

Guess i took it for granted
That you'd feel the same as me
Had enough of romances ending unromantically
You don't take any chances
But you gamble aimlessly
Always running in circles
Keeping phoney company
You call'em up when you get in town
'cos it's time to play the game
Hangin' out at the place to be
Where the people know your name

And i'm tryin' to say
It doesn't matter at all
It doesn't matter what you do
I'm gonna leave you anyway
But i want you to know
You'll be the one who'll lose

It was foolish to kid myself
That love's a guarantee
It's an illusion that's often sold
But never comes for free
Can you see what you're losing
Oh, can you even really see
Seems you're so busy moving, honey
You never even noticed you lost me
And i'm trying to say
It doesn't matter at all
It doesn't matter how you feel
I'm gonna say it anyway
Cos i want you to know
You'll be the one who'll lose

Written by ricky & marty wilde

Well there's a rumour out
Have you heard anything ?
And if you ask me now
Will i answer your question ?
In your eyes - i could hear you

Chorus:
Is it over
Is it over (or has it just begun)
Is it over
Is it over (or has it just begun)

You never thought it would get to this
And now you're sick with love
Do you think i can heal you
In my mind - i still hear you

Is it over (or has it just begun)
Is it over
Is it over (or has it just begun)

If i thought i was part of you
I would beg you to stay
But i can't live my time in this world
With the felling this way

Is it over (or has it just begun)
Is it over
Is it over (or has it just begun)

And so you ask me now
Have you done anything
And when you're reaching out
Do i still wanna hold you
In my mind - i can hear you

Chorus (repeat to fade)

Written by kim & ricki wilde

Tonight i'm gonna fly
Like a phoenix rising from the ashes of love
Towards the open sky
Gonna spread my wings and circle above
I've been too long on the ground
My head looking down
I don't want to be there again
You gave me a love so real
Now i can't believe how you're making me feel

You take me to heaven baby
You're taking me higher and higher
You take me to paradise
Don' you know it feels so good
You take me to heaven, higher, higher

The sweetest liberty is a heart in chains that love sets free
And so you came my way
And i knew i'd found my destiny
The pain and the tears have all disappeared
And now i won't be crying no more
I never felt so sure
Cos i've found what i've been looking for

You take me to hea

Written by ricky & kim wilde

I want to tell you of a place that i recall
Where you're drawn by the seduction
And the beauty of it all
You can step into another world
Of poetry and dreams
In a land of mystery
Images dance, translucent colours seem to shine
They're a ghostly recollection
Of another space and time
I imagine i can hear their voices calling me
To the land of mystery

Where the russian heart is strong
Like the beating of a drum
Where the magic lingers on
And the fight for thruth is won
Deep in the european soul

And love's eternal flame was burning deep inside
It was the purest inspiration
That he never tried to hide
When you see the lovers floating
You can almost hear them sigh
As you watch them dancing
Up into the sky

The world's realities are not to be denied
But must we keep destroying all our fantasies
It's hard to look beyond when terror fills our eyes
We mustn't give up trying to let our dreams survive

I touch the paintings with the fingers of my heart
Like a supernatural love affair that's just about to start
But there'll always be the hidden dreams i'll never see
In the land of mystery

Written by kim wilde & tony swain

There was a lot to make up
For the time we'd had
Cos we'd been lonely far too long
Had enough of feeling sad
And no, it didn't take long
To right all the wrong
And hurt inside
And now i can't believe what's happening
Right before my eyes

Just look at the rain falling
Look at the thunder
Look at the storm in your hearts
Look at the waves crashing
Pulling us under
Helplessly lost in the dark

We could have lost so easily
And let it go
We had no reason to believe
That love was just about to grow
And we got given a chance
I'm so proud we didn't throw it away
Cos broken hearts lie on the pavement
You see them every day

Just look at the rain falling
Look at the thunder
Look at the thunder
Look at the storm in your hearts
Look at the waves crashing
Pulling us under
Helplessly lost in the dark
In the dark

Just look at the rain falling
Look at the thunder
Look at the storm in your hearts
Look at the waves crashing
Pulling us under
Helplessly lost in the dark

Look at the rain
Look at the thunder
Look at the storm
In our hearts
In our hearts

Written by kim wilde

Well they'll tease you and they'll please you
Make you better when you're feeling bad
All hope is gone - singing
Songs about love

They'll upset you and they'll get you
Slay your fantasy till you almost believe
You're the only one - singing
(songs about love)

So don't believe they're writing all those songs for you
Oh no 'cos you know they're only lies you're listening to
Those songs about love

It's all over now and nothing's right
You're left crying every night
(it ain't fair) oh no no
(it ain't fair) singing all about love

They'll deceive you, now they'll leave you
Leave you so confused don't you know you've been used
Now can't you see - singing
All about love

So don't believe they're writing all those songs for you
Oh no 'cos you know they're only lies you're listening to
Those songs about love

It's all over now and nothing's right
You're left crying every night
(it ain't fair) oh no no
(it ain't fair) so what you're gonna do about it
Don't you see it's just not right
To keep your feelings out of sight
(feeling bad) oh no no
(feeling bad) singing songs about love

And if we'd never meet again
(what would you do with your life)
Do you think we could be friends
(or would it hurt you hurt you)
Don't you see they got to you and me
With all their songs about love

Well you know now, better go now
Gonna mend your heart it's a brand new start
Don't be afraid - singing
Songs about love

So don't believe they're writing all those songs for you
Oh no 'cos you know they're only lies you're listening to
Those songs about love

Ooh ooh ooh
Oh no no no no

Don't you see it's just not right
To leave your feelings out of sight
Oh no no
Singing songs about love

I couldn't believe what i read when i got your letter
Said you needed to take some time to work out your life, yeah
Well, it's easy for you to just go off and do what you want
Any time you please
Don't expect me to wait
If you leave it's too late
You're gonna have to crawl back on your knees

Wotcha gonna do when it gets so lonely
When you're down and so far away from home
How ya gonna feel, you know it won't get better
Cos you've made your bed so you can lie in it on your own
Wotcha gonna do

I knew you'd been feeling the need to just change direction
But i didn't know you were gonna walk away from me, no
Now you're out on your own cos you think you've outgrown
All the things that you left behind
But it's crazy to see
Cos you know without me
You're gonna end up losing more than you find

Wotcha gonna do when it gets so lonely
When you're down and so far away from home
How ya gonna feel, you know it won't get better
Cos you've made your bed so you can lie in it on your own
Yeah, yeah

Now don't be a fool on yourself
Cos you've got so much to lose
And i really love you baby
Don't you know that i do, yeah

How ya gonna feel, you know it won't get better
Now you're down and so far away
Now you're down and so far away
Now you're down and so far away from home
Wotcha gonna do

How ya gonna feel

I will always love you
Now and forever
I will always love you
Two words collide
Before we knew what was happening
Love crashed into our lives
So helplessly we fell so hard
Guess something had to break
We made our first mistake
We thought we'd found the answer over night
To all the problems that were in our lives
And now i feel the tears
And not a minute passes by
When i don't wish
That you were near
Time will never mend (oh no)
This broken heart
Now and forever
I will always love you
Pain that never ends (oh oh)
You can be sure
Now and forever
I will always love you
When you hear my name
Tell me how do you fell
Is it just like me
My heart fills up with pain
Just the mention of you makes me fall apart
But where is there to start
You sais we missed our chance and it's too late
But i believe there's one more chance to take
I know we said goodbye
But i still can't let go
Please give us one more try
Time will never mend (oh no)
This broken heart
Now and forever
I will always love you
Pain that never ends (oh oh)
You can be sure
Now and forever
I will always love you
Think again before you walk away
There's so many reasons you should stay
It's our destiny
It how it's got to be
Just you and me
No matter where you go
No matter what you do
You know i'm gonna be right here for you
I will always love you
Giving you my heart
Giving you my soul
Never ever gonna let you go
I will always love you

Been a long time alone now
Only live every day on my own terms
Doing everything my way
If you don't understand you had to learn

You say you see a different world
That you don't believe in what i say
Now you walk into my world
Aware of the danger
But you won't turn away

Somewhere down the road i left a part of me behind
The girl you want to know left years ago
Before she lost her mind
You brought back the heart in me
I thought i'd never find
'cos i didn't care before
But now i've found a reason

Baby, how did you find me
I've been lost for so long without a trace
You came back to remind me
Got me back from a sad and lonely place

And all the ghosts have disappeared
You've taken away the things i've feared
I've turned my back on all the pain
You gave me a reason to llive my life again

Somewhere down the road i left a part of me behind
The girl you want to know left years ago
Before she lost her mind
You brought back the heart in me
I thought i'd never find
'cos i didn't care before
But now i've found a reason

You were there before my eyes
How could i have been so blind
I've got one life
I've been wasting time
You came to save this heart of mine

And all the ghosts have disappeared
You've taken away the things i've feared
I've turned my back on all the pain
You gave me a reason to llive my life again

Somewhere down the road i left a part of me behind
The girl you want to know left years ago
Before she lost her mind
You brought back the heart in me
I thought i'd never find
'cos i didn't care before
But now i've found a reason
Now i've found a reason

Did i say something wrong
Well if i've hurt you then tell me now
Don't let your fear surround you
Why don't you talk to me

Well i know what you want
And i know what you need
But believe me baby
They may not be the same
Think it over

Deep in my heart
There's a place that only you can find
But still there's a part
Of my life wrapped in confusion
I can't tell you i'm in love
But i can't stand to lose you
Please believe me when i say i do
I believe in you, believe in you

Some people believe in love
I'd rather believe in something real
Something that lasts forever
That's why i'm still with you

So you're head over heals
And i know now it feels
But believe me baby
It won't be the same
When it's over

Deep in my heart
There's a place that only you can find
But still there's a part
Of my life wrapped in confusion
I can't tell you i'm in love
But i can't stand to lose you
Please believe me when i say i do
I believe in you, believe in you

These worlds i say aren't meant to hurt
I only want to save you pain
We'll find a way
To change your heart
And throw away these chains of love

Darlin' don't you know i've had enough
Wasting all my time
Darlin' put it on the line
Cos i heard you lying time and time again
Ooh and i don't want to any more
This is where our loving has to end
Darlin' now you know the score
So goodbye baby

Hey mr heartache how much can you fake
How many hearts break before you get enough
Hey mr heartache you don't give you just take
I hope for your sake you don't turn your back on love

Darlin' don't know what you're looking for
But i'm not waiting around to see
Darlin' can't take any more
I still love you but i'm gonna set you free
Ooh that's the way it's got to be
Cos i know i can't change you anyway
Darlin' there's nothing left to say
But goodbye baby

Hey mr heartache how much can you fake
How many hearts break before you get enough
Hey mr heartache you don't give you just take
I hope for your sake you don't turn your back on love

Listen to me, so listen to me
Ooh baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Cos i was stupid to believe
You could give me what i need
You use anyone you can
Yet you call yourself a man
We'll seen through your disguise
And it's all that i despise
Now you've just run out of time
Go before i change my mind

Hey mr heartache, cos i love you baby
Hey mr heartache i still love you baby

I still love you but i'm gonna set you free
Ooh that's the way it's got to be
Cos i know i can't change you anyway
Darlin' there's nothing left to say
But goodbye baby

Junior:you don't know what i'm going through
You got me wrong, oh so wrong
Think you've sown me up
But you're so wrong

Come on now
You don't know what i'm going through, baby

Written by ricki & kim wilde

A while ago you looked at me
And said there'd come a time
You'd have to go away
You put it on the line
And told me we should only
Take each moment day by day

Well i know that there's a time in life
When people change
And go their separate ways
But i miss you, more each day

You're a million miles away
But i feel you in my heart
Though it hurt to leave that way
We'll we knew that from the start
Cos you never did pretend
Our love would never end

There is no way to love
No rules that we can follow
Nothing simple or defined
We make our own
And some we borrow
Hoping it won't end
But darling now we know
We've got no-where left to go

You're a million miles away
But i feel you in my heart
Through it hurt to leave that way
Well we knew that from the start
Cos you never did pretend
Our love would never end
Our love would never end

And if i travelled to the stars
Would i find out where you are
Touch the secret in your heart
And set it free
Or would you turn away
Cos i miss you more each day

You're a million miles away
But i feel you in my heart
Through it hurt to leave that way
Well we knew that from the start
Cos you never did pretend
Our love would never end
Our love would never end

As performed in the musical "tommy"
With alistair robins as mr. walker
Written by pete townsend

Alistair: this can't continue
It makes no sense
We're getting nowhere
I've lost all my confidence
The boy wants something
Unsatisfied
He needs attention
And care our love can't provide

And then, there's the matter of us

I'd like to prove
That i don't think you've seen the best of me
I've stood up for the boy
And i've clung to the hopes and the lies

I wished that the pain in your gaze
Could again be a test of me
But when i look in the mirror
I believe my own eyes

I believe my own eyes
Now i've come to the end
All my patience is gone
When i'm doubtful i tend
To believe my own eyes

Kim: i'd like to declare
This devotion and care is a life to live
That nothing has changed
And the time isn't passing us by
But i have to say here
That for us there is a clear-cut alternative
When we look at eachother
We believe our own eyes

Both: i believe my own eyes
Now i've come to the end
All my patience is gone
When i'm doubtful i tend
To believe my own eyes

This has gone far enough
After all we've been through
We can be brave
We done all we can humanly do
It's a time to be tough
A time to be wise
We must stop chasing our dreams and recover our lives

I believe my own eyes
Now i've come to the end
All my patience is gone
When i'm doubtful i tend
To believe...

I'd like to believe
But i don't think that we've seen the best of us
And a way to believe is to see where the real future lies
I hope that the pain in your gaze can again be a test of me
And when i look in the mirror
I believe my own eyes

Let's believe our own eyes
No we've come to the end
All our patience is gone
Let's admit we intend to believe our own eyes

Kim: ... to believe our own eyes

Written by ricki & kim wilde

I've been looking all around the world
To see what i could find
Just a lot of broken promises
And people left behind
Oh and the - pain of being lonely
Is what everybody fears
Yeah, it took a lot of time for me to realise

It's here, looking me in the eye
It's here, here all the time
It's here, i've always tried to find a way to go
But now i know
It's here

You can spend your life competing
In a world that talks too loud
You can lose your own direction
Getting lost among the crowd
Confusion - is it any wonder
That the road ahead's not clear
Well you can try too hard to find it
Now i realise

It's here, looking me in the eye
It's here, here all the time
It's here, i've always tried to find a way to go

Out on my own
In the suburbs of moscow
Out in the rain
Walking down this long avenue

Out to the crowds in the square
Feelings are high everywhere

But the feeling is gone
And i can't break away
(living in moscow)
Out in the cold
(so cold)
When there's nowhere to stay

Look at the girl
Gazing through the window
Clutching her books
Memorising every line

Keep your belief at the start
This was the faith in my heart

But the feeling is gone
And i can't break away
(living in moscow)
Out in the cold
(so cold)
When there's nowhere to stay

Where can we go
In the suburbs of moscow
Watching the rain
Beating down empty streets

Yes, the feeling is gone
And i can't break away
(living in moscow)
Out in the cold
(so cold)
When there's nowhere to stay

You - you've known that right from the start
Like - like a caress in my heart
There's a whisper in the morning flowing from the sea
It's saying this is the night to be what you wanna be

And i wanna be with you
And touch in the way lovers do
Though we've only known each other for just a day
You make it easy for me to say what i'm gonna say

I wanna be loved by you
Is there anything else i can do
I wanna be kissed by you
Wanna spend all the night loving you

A kiss is the best place to start
As words disappear in the dark
I can hear the words you're saying, the words are few
'cos we don't need any words to do what we're gonna do

I wanna be loved by you
Is there anything else i can do
I wanna be kissed by you
Wanna spend all the night loving you

I wanna be loved by you
Is there anything else i can do
I wanna be kissed by you
Wanna spend all the night loving you

Wanna be kissed by you
Wanna spend all the night loving you
Loving you
