1. _ Martha
Operator number please.
It's been so many years.
And she'll remember my old voice.
While i fight the tears.
Hello, hello there is this martha?
This is old tom frost.
And i am calling long distance.
Don't worry about the cost.
It's been 40 years or more.
Now martha please recall.
And meet me out for coffee.
Where we'll talk about it all.
And those were days of roses.
Poetry and prose and martha.
And all i had was you and all you had was me.
And there was no tomorrow's.
As we packed away our sorrows.
And we saved it for a rainy day.
And i feel so much older now.
And you're much older too.
Oh how's the husband how's the kids?
You know that i got married too!
Oh lucky that ya found someone.
To make ya feel secure.
Oh cause we were all so young and foolish.
And now we are mature.
And those were days of roses.
Poetry and prose and martha.
And all i had was you and all you had was me.
And there was no tomorrow's.
As we packed away our sorrows.
And we saved it for a rainy day.
And i was so implusive.
I guess that i still am.
But all that really mattered then.
Was that i was a man.
I guess that our being together.
Was never meant to be.
Oh but martha, martha i love you.
Can't you see.
And those were days of roses.
Poetry and prose and martha.
And all i had was you and all you had was me.
And there was no tomorrow's.
As we packed away our sorrows.
And we saved it for a rainy day.
And i remember quiet evenings.
Trembling close to you.

2. _ Runnin' For The Red Light
Madder than a mad man and bored to the core.
Minute hand crawling can't taxe it any more.
Future's up the highway, ya gotta get away.
Gonna take a little trip and find a tijuana stray.
Got the time to take it.
Got the balls to break it.
Gotta car that it'll make it.
South of the border, don't drink the water.
Gonna have a good time tonight.
Crazy from the heat and runnin' for the red light.
Oh senorita.
Have two tequila.
Heat seeker.
Lord, the will is getting weaker.
Gonna have a good time tonight.
Burnin' from the fever and runnin' for the red light.
She ain't a teacher.
She ain't a preacher.
Just so close to holy.
That your runnin' just to reach her.
Time bomb is tickin', my head's about to bust.
Need your personal attention or i swear i'm gonna rust.
Find a little place.
No one will tell you what to do.
Tell her i'm a rebel.
She says "yea without a clue".
Just need some understanding.
A girl who ain't demanding.
Who ain't afraid to fake it.
Leave ya breathless.
She's one of a kind.
Gonna have a good time tonight.
Crazy from the heat and runnin' for the red light.
Oh senorita.
Have three tequila.
Love seeker.
Lord, the will is getting weaker.
Gonna have a good time tonight.
Burnin' from the fever and runnin' for the red light.
She ain't a teacher.
She ain't a preacher.
Just so close to holy.
That your runnin' just to reach her.
A girl who ain't demanding.
A little bad behavior.
She's gonna be mv saviour.
My knees are shakin'.
My back is breakin'.
Gonna have a good time tonight.
Crazy from the heat and runnin' for the red light.
Oh senorita.
Have two tequila.
Heat seeker.
Lord, the will is getting weaker.
Gonna have a good time tonight.
Burnin' from the fever and runnin' for the red light.
She ain't a teacher.
She ain't a preacher.
Just so close to holy.
That your runnin' just to reach her.
Gonna have a good time tonight.
Crazy from the heat and runnin' for the red light.
Oh senorita.
Have some tequila.
Need sneakers.
Lord, the will is getting weaker.
Gonna have a good time tonight.
Burnin' from the fever and runnin' for the red light.
Just heard the bell.
That got me outta hell.
Got a girl.
I gotta life...

3. _ Where Angels Sing
This song was dedicated to valeria m.
Meet me downtown on the corner.
I'll be waiting in a big yellow cab.
Don't bring a suitcase.
You won't need a thing.
There'll be no worries.
Where angels sing.
I got my ticket in my hand.
Oh, the price is paid in full.
No man can stop me.
Their words won't sting you.
No dreams will haunt you.
Where angels sing.
I get so weary.
On this troubled road.
Unlock these chains.
And gently rock me home.
Beyond the clouds and the rain
Where angels sing.
Where angels sing.
Where lies can't hurt you.
The flesh desert me.
No in or out.
No loss or doubt.
No living with or doing without.
Where money ain't the power king.
And kindness is the most precious thing.
Where angels sing.
Oh, where angels sing.
Where time means nothing.
No hustle.
No one rushing.
No dark of night.
No hate or spite.
No wrong or right.
No day or night.
No towns or no cities.
There's no pain, no pity.
Where hunger is no longer.
And a good man just gets stronger.
Where angels sing.
Where angels sing.
Where angels sing.
Where angels sing.
Where angels sing.
Where angels sing.

4. _ Left In The Dark
You don't have to sheak in the door.
Just come on in to the room.
I've been lying in our bed in the dark all alone.
And i've been waiting.
I've been waiting for you.
There's been no reason to move.
It's been as still as a tomb.
I needed you oh so badly tonight.
But i guess you had better things to do.
I should have known that it was coming to this.
But i must have been blind.
I bet you still got a trace of his love in your eyes.
And you still got his eyes on your mind.
You swore you'd be with me at seven o'clock.
Now it's a quater to three.
Well whatever you got and whoever it was.
I guess you couldn't get it from me.
Whatever you got and whoever it was.
I guess you couldn't get it from me.
I know that you love me.
There's no need to talk.
I see the look in your eyes and i got the proof.
And there are no lies on your body.
So take off your dress.
Oh i just want to get at the truth.
I know that you love me.
There's no need to talk.
I see the look in your eyes and i got the proof.
And there are no lies on your body.
So take off your dress.
Oh i just want to get at the truth.
And ther are so many things that i just got to know.
You tell me who!
You tell me where!
You tell me when!
But don't tell me now.
I don't need any answers tonight.
I just need some love, so turn out the lights.
And i'll be left in the dark again.
Left in the dark again.
I just need some love, so turn out the lights.
And i'll be left in the dark again.
Left in the dark again.
I just need some love, so turn out the lights.
And i'll be left in the dark again.
Left in the dark again.
I should have known that it was coming to this.
But i must have been blind.
I bet you still got a trace of his love in your eyes.
And you still got his eyes on your mind.
You swore you'd be with me at seven o'clock.
Now it's a quater to three.
Well whatever you got and whoever it was.
I guess you couldn't get it from me.
Whatever you got and whoever it was.
I guess you couldn't get it from me.
But down in my soul, down in my soul.
I know that you love me.
There's no need to talk.
I see the look in your eyes and i got the proof.
And there are no lies on your body.
So take off your dress.
Oh i just want to get at the truth.
And ther are so many things that i just got to know.
You tell me who!
You tell me where!
You tell me when!
But don't tell me now.
I don't need any answers tonight.
I just need some love, so turn out the lights.
And i'll be left in the dark again.
I just need some love, so turn out the lights.
And i'll be left in the dark again.
I just need some love, so turn out the lights.
And i'll be left in the dark again.
I just need some love, so turn out the lights.
And i'll be left in the dark again.
I just need some love, so turn out the lights.
And i'll be left in the dark again.
Left in the dark.
You made the very first move.

5. _ Original Sin
I've been looking for an original sin.
One with a twist and a bit of a spin.
I've done all of the old ones.
Till they've all been done in.
Now i'm just looking -
Then i'm gone with the wind -
Endlessly searching for an original sin.
You can dance forever.
You got a fire in your feet.
But will it ever be enough?
You know it'll never be enough.
You can fly and never land.
And never need to sleep.
But will it ever be enough?
You know it'll never be enough.
Not enough to make the nightmares go away.
Not enough to make the tears run dry.
Not enough to live a littel better everyday.
Everything that they taught us.
Was nothing but lies.
Everthing thing they brought us.
Was nothing but bribes.
But it'll all be over now -
All i wanted was a piece of the night.
I never got an equal share.
When the stars are out of sight.
And the moon is down -
The natives are so restless tonight.
I've been looking for an original sin.
One with a twist and a bit of a spin.
I've done all of the old ones.
Till they've all been done in.
Now i'm just looking -
Then i'm gone with the wind -
Endlessly searching for an original sin.
You can lose yourself in pleasure.
Till your body's going numb.
But will it ever be enough?
You know it'll never be enough.
You can always take whatever.
You conceivably could want.
But will it ever be enough?
You know it'll never be enough.
Not enough to make the nightmares go away.
Not enough to make the tears run dry.
Not enough to live a littel better everyday.
Everything that they taught us.
Was nothing but lies.
Everthing thing they brought us.
Was nothing but bribes.
But the lies are over now -
All i wanted was a piece of the night.
It neve rhad to get so dark.
When the stars are out of sight.
And the moon is down -
The natives are so restless tonight.
I've been looking for an original sin.
One with a twist and a bit of a spin.
I've done all of the old ones.
Till they've all been done in.
Now i'm just looking -
For an original sin.
I've been looking for the ultimate crime.
Infinite victims, infinitesimal time -
And i'm so guilty for no reson or rhyme.
So now i'm just looking.
And killing some time -
Endlessly searching for the ultimate crime.
I've been looking for an original sin.
One with a twist and a bit of a spin.
I've done all of the old ones.
Till they've all been done in.
Now i'm just looking -
Then i'm gone with the wind -
Endlessly searching for an original sin.
I'm applying for a license to thrill.
Going out on the edge -
Moving in for the kill.
They'll be hell to pay someday.
So put it all on the bill.
Cause we'll always be paying!
And paying until -
We're beyond expiration.
With a license to thrill.

6. _ 45 Seconds Of Ecstasy
45 seconds of ecstasy.
How it comes right back to me.
Fly so high and feel so free.
45 seconds of ecstasy.
45 seconds of ecstasy.
Cuts right through the complexity.
When i feel him right next to me.
45 seconds of ecstasy.

8. _ Not A Dry Eye In The House
not a dry eye in the house
After loves curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking
I can still see you standing there
Midnight wind blowing through your hair
Kisses sweet in the salty air
When love was forever
Turn the page and we fade to blue
The scene has changed now i'm without you
Walked away when the act was through
And the dream was over
It was almost like a movie - the way you said goodbye
You must have a lot of time rehearsing each and every line
Now there's not a dry eye in the house
After loves curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking
Not a smile left on my face
The ending's just too sad to take
And there's not a dry eye
Not a dry eye in the house
The greatest story was you and me
Had it all we had everything, but now the
Story's done it's just history
The last act is over
You every line had the sweetest sound
Your every touch turned my world around
But the light came up and my world crashed down
End of show - it's over
It was almost like a movie
Those nights we touched the stars
Time stood still for you and i
Now it's sad enough to make you cry
Now there's not a dry eye in the house
After love's curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking
Not a smile left on my face
The ending's just too sad to take
And there's not a dry eye
Not a dry eye in the house
Act one - the story's just begun
Act two - i fell in love with you
Act three - knew it was meant to be
Act four - you don't love me no more
And there's not a dry eye in the house
After love's curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking
Not a smile left on my face
The ending's just too sad to take
And there's not a dry eye
Not a dry eye
Not a dry eye in the house
After love's curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking
Not a dry eye in the house (3x)

9. _ Amnesty Is Granted
Love's an hourglass.
It goes out wide then it comes in closer.
It drift's away leaving empty shattered moments.
Who said that love could last forever.
I'm growin' tired of feelin' like i do.
As we drift apart.
Little secerts come between us.
As we sail away.
Feelin' comfort in the distance.
You said that love would last forever.
Neither one of us will ever surrender.
There's a time.
There's a place.
A change of heart.
About face.
This is about love.
It's about forgiveness.
Tell me now -
Tell me like it is.
You don't have to give -
Amnesty is granted.
What's done is done for everyone.
Come on baby let' start again right now.
Amnesty, amnesty, amnesty is granted.
Yeah, i think a lot.
Yeah i been thinkin' a lot.
I been thinkin' about you baby.
Lord knows i've been thinkin' about you.
I've been thinkin' that love would last forever.
Neither one of us will ever surrender.
There's a time.
There's a place.
A change of heart.
About face.
This is about love.
It's about forgiveness.
Tell me now -
Tell me like it is.
You don't have to give -
Amnesty is granted.
Well done is done for everyone.
Come on baby let' start again right now.
Amnesty, amnesty, amnesty is granted.
Neither one of us will ever surrender.
There's a time.
There's a place.
A change of heart.
About face.
This is about love.
It's about forgiveness.
Tell me now -
Tell me like it is.
You don't have to give -
Amnesty is granted.
Well done is done for everyone.
Come on baby let' start again right now.
Amnesty, amnesty, amnesty is granted.
What's done is done for everyone.
Come on baby let' start again right now.

10. _ I'd Lie For You (and That's The Truth)
I'd never tell you one lie.
I'd never let you down.
I'd never leave i'd be the one who'd always be around.
Baby give me a chance.
I'd pull the sun down from the sky.
To light your darkest night.
I'd never let one drop of rain fall down into your life.
Put your heart in my hands.
Baby believe me, i could never do you wrong.
And i would never paint your world blue.
And if sometimes it seems i must lost my mind.
I might be crazy, but i'm crazy about you.
I'd lie for you and that's the truth.
Do anything you asked me to.
I'd even sell my soul for you.
I'd do it all for you.
If you'd just believe in me.
Just take a look in my eyes.
You'd see a love that's blind.
Just take a hold of my hand.
I'll take you to paradise.
Ain't a star that's too far.
Every wish will be a wish.
That i will make come true.
And if you want the moon.
I swear i'll bring it down to you.
Let me into your heart.
Believe me baby.
Got your name carved on my soul.
'cause your the only one that i'll give it too.
Go let'em say that i'm fool to act this way.
'cause if i'm crazy, i'm just crazy 'bout you.
I'd lie for you and that's the truth.
Do anything you asked me to.
I'd even sell my soul for you.
I'd do it all for you.
If you'd just believe in me.
I'd lie for you and that's the truth.
Do anything you asked me to.
I'd even sell my soul for you.
I'd do it all for you.
If you'd just believe in me.
I'd lie for you and that's the truth.
Move mountains if you want me to.
I'd walk across the fire for you.
I'd walk across the wild for you.
If you'd just believe in me.
And you will never see a day.
I'll ever break your heart.
You'll see the sky fall down.
Before it ever gets that far.
I'll show you heaven.
Every second that your in my arms.
Baby, i'm crazy, but i'm crazy 'bout you.
I'd lie for you and that's the truth.
Do anything you asked me to.
I'd even sell my soul for you.
I'd do it all for you.
If you'd just believe in me.
I'd lie for you and that's the truth.
Do anything you asked me to.
I'd even sell my soul for you.
I'd do it all for you.
If you'd just believe in me.
I'd lie for you and that's the truth.
Move mountains if you want me to.
I'd walk across the fire for you.
I'd walk across the wild for you.
If you'd just believe in me.
I'd lie for you and that's the truth.
Do anything you asked me to.
I'd even sell my soul for you.
I'd do it all for you.
If you'd just believe in me.
I'd lie for you and that's the truth.
Do anything you asked me to.
I'd even sell my soul for you.
I'd do it all for you.
If you'd just believe in me.
I'd lie for you and that's the truth.
Move mountains if you want me to.
I'd walk across the fire for you.
I'd walk across the wild for you.
If you'd just believe in me.
