1. _ Everytime It Rains
No feeling when you told me goodbye
No reason when you're living a lie
Don't tell me what i already know
I'm living memories of long ago
I fool myself, i deny it all
Wanna hide it away
Lost moments never caring enough
I was never good at playing it tough
Still living in my own little world
Still believing you're the only one
It's always hard, never easier
To face another day alone
Every time it rains i fall apart
I start to remember
Every single time it rains
I think of you.

2. _ Cry Wolf
Ime out, no good now
Screamin' too loud
And i can't hear a word you say
Look out, way too late
Sun's going down
And i'm comin' around your way
You keep calling me all night
You keep saying it's alright, alright
Got me runnin'
When you cry, you cry, cry wolf
Got me running, cry,cry--cry, cry wolf
Don't touch, don't look now
Somethin's cookin'
And it's keepin' me hang around
But when the call comes through
I'm ready for you and you say it ain't true
But you're keepin' your defenses down
You keep callin' me all night
You keep saying it's alright, alright
Got me runnin'
When you cry, you cry, cry wolf
Got me runnin' cry, cry--cry wolf
(rankin, mccafferty)

3. _ Lap Of Luxury
She was a wall street celebrity
With upward mobility
Walked and talked like a man
But that was o.k. by me
Two bit losers can never be choosers
No nit pickin' kickin' the can
Livin' in the lap
Livin' in the lap of luxury
Seventeen self abusals
Got me twenty blind, flat refusals
While she's dressin' all in white
I'm gettin' set up for my life
Hard work never stopped the dance
But provin' it just ain't worth the chance
Livin' in the lap
Livin' in the lap of luxury
Everything's alrighty by me
With risin' credibility
I'm leavin' a mark with my indelability
She's earnin' the money
I'm servin' the honey
Bring it on home to the hive---no jive
Livin' in the lap
Livin' in the lap of luxury
(rankin, mccafferty, agnew, sweet)

4. _ Right Between The Eyes
Good days, bad days
Tearin' up the freeways
Runnin' in the big race, gotta get on
She's comin' on strong
There's something goin' on
It's the same old song but i gotta get on
Doin' this, doin' that, sleepin' on a doormat
Gotta make a comeback, maybe tonight
When it gets insane and i'm losin' my brain
But i'm makin' my name
Gotta do it tonight
She really fooled me
She got me right between the eyes
She pushed me pulled me
She got me right between the eyes.

5. _ Cover Your Heart
Another day alone, another pain to hide
It's gettin' hard to hold, it's hurtin' deep inside
Livin' for no-one, given no space to run
There's gotta be someone you gotta keep holdin' on
It wasn't meant to last, you weren't meant to fall
And all the photographs you want to burn them all
But goin' down easy isn't so crazy now
Nobody needs you but don't let it get you down
Cover your heart
Don't let anyone's lovin' get a hold of you
Cover your heart
Cause it never does nothin' it's supposed to do
You used to have it all there all a love could be
But now the dreams you shared are just a memory
For all the wrong reasons you want it all, even now
Caught on the rebound turnin' you inside out
Cover your heart
Don't let anyone's lovin' get a hold of you
Cover your heart
Cause it never does nothin' it's supposed to do
Cover your heart
For all the wrong reasons you want it all, even now
Caught on the rebound turnin' you inside out
Cover your heart
Cover your heart

6. _ Thinkin' Man's Nightmare
She's a thinkin' man's nightmare
She got quicksand bridal wear
I'm her beach-ballin' dan dare
She feels so good
Owner sensational
She's a mona-wailin' wall
Alligator chainsaw
Feels so good
I didn't get where i am today
Givin' a dawn about judgement day
Mat be first in line when there's hell to pay
But i'm a grinnin'-sinnin' in a million ways:
A thinkin' man's nightmare
Feels so good
Snake bite creeper
Light house keeper
Reader and weeper
Feels so good
Tuxedo princess
In a home grown red dress
Sleazy, easy access
Feels so good
I didn't get where i am today
Givin' a dawn about judgement day
I may be the first in line when there's hell to pay
But i'm a grinnin'-sinnin' in a million ways:
She's a thinkin' man's nightmare
Feels so good
Snake bite creeper, fow lair timeshare
Light house keeper, cocktail light affair
She's a reader and a weeper, anytime, anywhere
Feels so good
A thinkin' man's nightmare, tuxedo princess
Quicksand bridal wear, in a home grown red dress
Beach-ballin' dan dare, sleazy, easy access
Feels so good, feels so good
Feels so good, feels so good
(rankin, mccafferty, agnew, sweet)

7. _ Tell Me That You Love Me
Tell me that you love me
Even though i'm far away
Tell me that you need me
Help me through another day
Well, i'm not new to this
Held on before when i should have let go
The mistakes that you make
Keep comin' round like a family ghost
I just wanna know
Am i moving in or heading for the coast
She said:
Tell me that you love me
Even though you're far away
Tell me that you need me
Help me through another day
I don't know what to do
I'm all dressed up no place to go
Sailing against the wind, can't figure it out
Which way it will blow
Show me now
I'm lost at sea i'm sinking below
Help me now
Tell me, tell me
Tell me that you love me
Even though you're far away
Tell me that you need me
Help me through another day.
(agnew, mccafferty, rankin, sweet)

8. _ Keeping Our Love Alive
C'mon make my day
That's what she said, pointing her gun
Your luck's on the run
Some fast talkin', quick step walkin', roadblocks ahead
You may say i'm guilty but i try
Keepin' our love alive
The judge and jury
The accused in fury--clutching at straws
It's all for the cause
Circumstances blew your chances
It's understood
You mat say i'm guilty but i tried
Keepin' our love alive, keepin' our love alive
Treadin' through the grapevine
Sendin' you a lifeline
Don't let it go
You may say i'm guilty but i tried
Keepin' our love alive
Keepin' our love alive
(rankin, mccafferty, agnew, sweet)
