"the dawning of a brand new day
The waking of the whispers say: That sleeping heavens will return In deepest night the secret learned And from these walls this city lies The past will be our future The journey will be over, Awake!" I saw the writing on the wall The story of our birth then fall Within their tombs of holy stone The scrolls of life, one man alone So if we try, we can live and learn The sands will pull you under Don't let them pull you under Awake! I travelled to a foreign land Through stormy seas and burning sand Led by the stars the ancient stream The call of treasures yet unseen So if we climb to the rocks of kings Together we'll discover The source of all our wonder Awake! Someday we're going to go back to the stars And find the answer, who we really are A traveller through the lonely mists of time Creation from the sky The dawning of a brand new day The waking of the whispers say: That sleeping heavens will return In deepest night the secret learned From these walls this city lies The past will be our future The journey will be over Awake! Someday we're going to go back to the stars And find the answer who we really are A traveller through the lonely mists of time Creation from the sky Someday we're going to back to the stars And find the answer who we really are If we try, we can live and learn Together we'll discover The source of all our wonder Awake! We saw the writing We read the story Awake! Music & lyrics by: geoff downes & john payne |

Whenever your shadow falls on stony ground
And there's not a hand for you to hold Whenever the dreams you dream come crashing down Every time you think of home Remember that you're not alone And we'll be with you heart and soul Wherever you are And if you should lose your path along the way And find yourself walking in the dark Whenever the ones you love seem far away Every time you think of home Remember that you're not alone And we'll be with you heart and soul Wherever you are Whenever the fears you hide come reaching through Every time you think of home Remember that you're not alone And we'll be with you heart and soul Every time you think of home Remember that you're not alone And we'll be with you heart and soul We'll be with you heart and soul Wherever you are We're with you heart and soul Music & lyrics by: andrew gold, graham gouldman, geoff downes & john payne |

On the street below these walls
Where i used to walk Now i can barely crawl All this darkness rising tall Lord, shine a light for me I'm waiting to be called I'm ready to go home I'm ready to receive Forgiveness for my sins I'm ready to begin Take this river to the sea Where the delta flows The tide is washing over me Guide this soul to heaven's door Show me where tomorrow lies I'm waiting to be home I'm ready to lay down I'm ready now to sleep A promise i must keep I'm ready to go home Sometimes i lay down with these memories Breathe shallow, deep inside of me Time has run its course with me And i'm ready to go home When the evening shadows fall When the time has come I let defences fall To surrender's to survive I will give up everything To those i leave behind I'm ready to go home I'm ready to receive Forgiveness for my sins I'm ready to begin I'm ready to lay down I'm ready now to sleep A promise i must keep I'm ready to go home Again Music & lyrics by: andrew gold & graham gouldman |

If you want it
Don't look at my face It's the last time It's not forever The dust in the wind It's the last time One world, one dream The stars in your hand No light, no life The scars are made by man Heaven can't help you now In this madness Take it while you can It's the last time This holy water Running away For the last time One world, one dream The stars in your hand No light, no life So heal the scars of man One chance, this night To shine on this land This time, with pride Give back now while you can All these fields, that once were green Have turned to smoke and steel The sun will fall, and the last moon rise Don't turn this tide away If you want it So start it again It's the last time (the scars were made by man) It's not forever The dust is the wind For the last time One world, one dream The stars in your hand No light, no life So heal the scars of man One chance, this night To shine on this land This time, with pride Give back now while you can Music & lyrics by: geoff downes & john payne |

Washing out the lie Living inside me Life's not hard Now i'm on tv This sudden twist of fate I am direct salvation Just send in your donation I can promise that you'll be saved Forgive me, world I'm just a man who's lost his way Forgive me, these two words i pray It's time to make a change Yesterday was a different day Thought i knew the answer A vision in my mind Search my soul And then you will find A shelter for my pain The truth is in the open And now my heart has spoken Hoping maybe you'll hear my cry Forgive me, world I'm just a man who's lost his way Forgive me, these two words i pray It's time to make a change Forgive me, world I'm just a man who sins today Forgive me, these two words i pray My faith is still the same Maybe i can't change the past Maybe love can bring us back Maybe we can try and start again.

Heroes of the future
The keepers of the past And objects of our beauty Remaining till the last Walking on the water The oceans at our feet The passage of our nature The taste of bitter-sweet So shall we be kings? Born just to win Proud voices sing And we wish that this life would go on and on Looking in the distance The fever on the street Cast away the covers Let my people see Rulers of the network Leaders from the dark Embrace a generation The first will be the last So shall we be kings? Born just to win Proud voices sing And we wish that this life would go on and on Shall we be kings? Born just to win Proud voices sing We will never give up till the day is done Shall we be kings? Born just to win Proud voices sing And we hope that the word will live on and on Time waiting Time taking Life Music & lyrics by: geoff downes & john payne |

Do you remember years ago?
All our hopes would ebb and flow We thought we'd find a promised land Our footprints in the sand The mysteries, the twists of fate Have changed the path from love to hate But won't erase sins of the past They hide behind the mask If i could conquer all our fears Can forgiveness dry the tears? If i falter, my soul i'll sell On the coldest day in hell I'll never let you down How can i tell you now? But only heaven knows I won't let you go I dream of demons through the night A restless fever till morning light My body's cold, my head's on fire Give me back my life Kill this ghost inside of me Let me sail on deep blue seas A new beginning, another page Dawn gives in to day I will conquer all our fears Let forgiveness dry the tears If i falter my soul i'll sell On the coldest day in hell I'll never let you down How can i tell you now? But only heaven knows I won't let you go I swear i'll stand my ground How can i turn this round? As this time heaven knows I won't let you know When i'm dreaming, i'm dreaming of you When i'm breathing, i'm breathing with you But only heaven knows I won't let you go Music & lyrics by: geoff downes, john payne & ben woolfenden |

Look into the distance, you're living in a cage
A fire burns inside you, that fuels all the rage You're thinking of the outside, and dream of the past The gates to freedom lie within your grasp They're changing the system, rewriting the laws Renaming religion, reshaping your cause You always be lonely, walking with fools The shadows in the doorways make the rules Because you're free, this time Don't be scared of who you are Free, to find There's no hiding in the dark A new day is dawning, a new age begun Nobody told you which way you should run Wait for the thunder, break from the shell Is this the gate to freedom from this hell? Because you're free, this time Don't be scared of who you are Free, to find There's no hiding in the dark Free, this time You can learn to live again Free, to find There is shelter from the rain Free They're razing the fences in the pastures of doom The fields of our heroes, the land won by few The call of a new world, dream to transcend Now it's time to fight and start again Because you're free, this time Don't be scared of who you are Free, to find There's no hiding in the dark Because you're free, this time You can learn to live again Free, to find There is shelter from the rain Music & lyrics by: geoff downes & john payne |

Don't hang that sign on me
You're the stranger Don't try to talk to me You're the stranger On the seas They came from far away From the skies Their silver birds of prey In one day Ten thousand years could change We are fools To live your pilgrim ways Don't hang that sign on me You're the stranger Don't try to talk to me You're the stranger And we drive Five hundred miles this time To the edge Of crystal-cut blue sky Silence breathes South of the border line Silent trees Look back and wonder why Did father and his holy son Spread the word and point the gun? And where the eagle used to fly They carve their concrete in the sky Tearing at our mother's skin Taking all her blood within Remember how it used to be? Did father and his holy son Spread the word and point the gun And where the eagle used to fly They carve their concrete in the sky Tearing at our mother's skin Taking all her blood within Remember how it used to be?

"what passing-bells for these who die as cattle?
- only the monstrous anger of the guns. Only the stuttering rifles' rapid rattle Can patter out their hasty orisons. No mockeries now for them; no prayers nor bells; Nor any voice of mourning save the choirs, - The shrill, demented choirs of wailing shells; And bugles calling for them from sad shires." (wilfred owen, 1918) Now the day has run When the cover comes But any fool can see Ahead Silence is my friend But it has to end Any fool can see Ahead It's the longest night It's the longest night Cold winds may blow On the longest night So we write our letters To those far away Any fool can see Ahead The distant sound of thunder A choir of wailing shells Any fool can see Ahead It's the longest night It's the longest night Cold winds may blow On the longest night I don't want to fight I don't know who's right Cold winds they blow On this longest night It's the longest night It's the longest night Cold winds may blow On this longest night Music & lyrics by: geoff downes, john payne & ben woolfenden |

This problem is insoluble
The answers seem impossible The logic ceases to exit Emotion is the beat we miss I stand on a world Where dreams, realities, existence are the same We take from our mother? skin But the world is not to blame Who tells the wind which way to blow ? I wonder who will stop the rain The rocks that hold the secrets, they don? know So who can stop the rain ? We?e lost the path for all we know Now tell me when will it start again ? And as the old man lifts his hands Please can you stop the rain Stars fall far away Like they never did before A new moon shining Like it never will again Desert white cloud Spirits they sing Rain falls from the big sky Onto broken wing There is no sense in turning back To wash the d?bris from the track World without reason without rhyme We fought for peace within our time |

Standing on the border,
Waiting on the line. Silence is a stranger, In these troubled times. I recall a better place, Where I controlled my mind. We had no fears at all... The day before the war. Hands across the water, The sun is in the East. Who will feed the famine After lions feast? In the name of Jesus, In the name of God, You took it all in vain... The day before the war. Standing on the border, Waiting on the line. Feet in bloody water, Deafened by the crime. I recall the beauty, Young will never see. We had no fears at all... The day before the war. Hearts across the water, The sun is in the East. Ships arrived this morning, From the burning sea. Take away the glory, Take away the pain. You were a friend of mine... The day before the war. |

Dont be afraid Youre not alone, now By the guard of angels A new rock will rise As mountains cut sky, now Heaven knows Never, Never, I could never lose my faith in you (could I ever break my faith to you) Never, Never, Will I ever turn my back on you You must be strong now And stand as a man.

There's a black Siberian
Look a white guy in the sun Miles away from where the quest begun From the ice to the sand Nations moved across the land Ever since time designed the man Someday to return To the place of my birth I'm a long way from home But I know where I belong It's a long way I know But the heart will still carry me home Firewater in the blood Took away the livelihood Giving thanks every single year Who the hell Owns this land? Is it God or is it man? With the blood we draw the line again I'm called to return To the place of my birth I'm a long way from home But I know where I belong It's a long way I know But the heart will still carry me home I'm a long way from home But I know where I belong It's a long way I know But the heart will still carry me home |

They put away the DDT now
But gave metal to the sea A hundred years can't wait A hundred years can't wait another day The only eagle, only tree Within a desert that was green A hundred years can't wait A hundred years can't wait another day Midnight Draws ever near Daylight Is fading so fast It's so close to midnight Midnight The melting ice will fuel the sea By burning gold from ancient tree A hundred years can't wait A hundred years can't wait another day This is progress, this is sin Injecting poison in her skin A hundred years can't wait A hundred years can't wait another day Midnight Draws ever near Daylight Is fading so fast It's so close to midnight Midnight |

So scared of the dark
Frightened now to close heavy eyes Escape this dream Haunts my every cell Whenever I sleep I wake into a world After the war Cities turned to sand We live underground Ever since the end of the fall Nations erased Programmed 20 years ago I'm alive Blue Moon Monday Blue Moon Monday I can't believe the scene Some day, some day So safe within my arms One day, one way We will return again Blue Moon Monday Again I awake Into a perfect world The sun always shines Here I feel so safe I'm living two lives The darkness and the light Heaven and Hell I don't wanna die Don't let me sleep Why can't just you hear what I say? Which is the dream Now I don't understand Am I alive? Blue Moon Monday Blue Moon Monday I can't believe the scene Some day, some day So safe within my arms One day, one way We will return again Blue Moon Monday |

Shake the hand of time
With the builders of stone Are you recognized? You're not going home Have to find a hideaway So turn up the neighbors The eagle is listening today It's not up to me To change what has been done It's not up to me A speechless world looks on It just has to be! Silent nation No longer have a name A number will do Cutting the wires of doom 'Cos they're watching you Raging in thought Mouthless, the millions obey So call off your dogs You preachers of what we can say It's not up to me To change what has been done It's not up to me A speechless world looks on It just has to be! Silent nation In a silent nation We must change what has been done It's a travesty Silent nation It's not up to me To change what has been done It's not up to me A speechless world looks on It just has to be!

I've been hearing voices
Voices in my head Can't escape the noises Lying in my bed The winter nights grow colder The darkness falls too soon I will hide till morning How silent is this moon? Just one look and I will find Someone else on the other side A trick of light or the darker mind Ghost in the mirror And as the dawn is waking The shadows burn away The sun reborn the savior The safety of the day Just one look and I will find Someone else on the other side A trick of light or the darker mind Ghost in the mirror The darkness calls me The shadows fool me Is it safe on the other side? Is this my future? If it's a dream why can't I wake? Just one look and I will find Someone else on the other side A trick of light or the darker mind Ghost in the mirror |

Kelly stands by the water
With a gun in her hand She won't believe in the future In a world made by man There's nowhere to run Nowhere to hide With so much to say and no time Have we gone too far? In a world so scarred Have we gone too far? Dream away Joseph stands in the desert With a gun in his hand Brother still killing brother Cold within this eastern land There's nowhere to run There's nowhere to hide With so much to do and no time Have we gone too far? In a world so scarred Have we gone too far? Dream away Gone too far In a world so scarred Have we gone too far? Dream away There must be some other way A hundred years from green to grey Close my eyes I'm safe today Blindly fade away Gone too far In a world so scarred Have we gone too far?

Do you believe? The truth Of who we are Everyone must kneel Everyone must bow No matter how you feel In the sacred hour And the sun don't shine Cos the moon won't fall And the sun won't shine Is there light at all? Its darkness day Ghost I feel it to the bone Enough The messages in stone Now the day has come Everyone will see A new age has begun For eternity And the sun don't shine Cos the moon won't fall And the sun won't shine Is there light at all?

I see faces through the wire No chance for them No shoulder left to cry on It's 4 am out on the street Through the smoke I see the fire It's a funeral pyre For them to die on {chorus} Countdown to zero Just begun Coundown to zero It's time to start the run The city lights are fading now As I climb into the plane To shield me from The stinging acid rain And this is it, it's over now As we taxi down Runway One Tell me please You'll wake me when it's over {chorus} Do you realize what's happening in Western Europe? Norway, Finland, Scotland, England We will be the first to go Don't do it {chorus} Don't do it Don't do it Don't start the countdown to zero We want to live We want to live We will live You've got your finger on the trigger Take it off Let it go Let it pass Let it go |

Now, the party's over
It's you and I, just you and I Now, the guests have gone It's one on one, one on one Which way now, will the eagle fly? Tell me how, will the starts shine in the sky {chorus} Love now till eternity Shooting for the moon To put your hand in mine and say I vow to stay with you {chorus} You, you are my life And so I give, all that I can All, all that is left That you are woman, I am man Which way now, will the eagle fly? Tell me how, will the starts shine in the sky {chorus} |

Too Late
by Asia I say, no way You've gone and stepped across that fine line I cried, you lied I tried, maybe a thousand times before I can't take no more {chorus} Too late You let the sun go down Too late You changed direction Too late For you to turn around We tried everything Move on, so long Two side to every story You told, good nights bad days, time to go out separate ways I can't say no more |

Where were you yesterday?
I called you up No one answered The phone rings now All the time I pick it up No one answers I know it seems like I just can't go ahead Sometimes it's like holding a gun to my head I get the green light but I'm still seeing red Something I can't stand Suspicion Suspicion In the park, yesterday I saw a face that spelled danger A friendly smile, a worried look I mistook for a stranger I keep on fighting and I know I can't win Something's biting me I'll never give in Coming back to me again and again The message in my hand Suspicion Suspicion Eating away at me, it won't let go Suspicion is following, everywhere I go He walks before me, he's someone that I don't know Suspicion Suspicion Where were you yesterday? Where will you be tomorrow? |

For those that are able
To go underground Missiles disenable They hit faster then sound They're coming and you have no choice The helpless with one human voice You will categorically say This underdog will have his day One more dead is one more Then it ought to be A travesty oh oh One more missed will be kissed To eternity Or purgatory oh oh After the war After the war Red button he's pressing But he knows not why He's programming orders War lights up the sky He's on the hotline tonight His mind is high as a kite His fingers decide wrong or right This man has it all in his sights Used as tools to believe In autonomy Minorities are no more Men are fools One last cry to humanity No sanity anymore After the war After the war After the war On my arm a tattoo for my sons to be That numbers you and me There's a scar on my face That is photographed for all to see oh oh After the war.. |

Standing there I've been watching you
All alone your face says it all Desperately I need to talk to you Can you see me will you answer my call Am I in love or is it the magic of tonight Am I In love or is it the magic of tonight And will it be right tomorrow morning Hold me now I feel you close to me It's so good, so good I want more Something stirs deep inside of me Face to face as we move my life is yours Am I in love or is it the magic of tonight Am I in love or is it the magic of tonight And will it be right tomorrow morning Just one kiss remember this And it will stay with you forever Am I in love or is it the magic of tonight Am I in love or is it the magic of tonight And will it be right tomorrow morning Am I in love Am I in love Am I in love Am I in love Am I in love or is it the magic of tonight Am I in love or is it the magic of tonight Am I in love or is it the magic of tonight Am I in love or is it the magic of tonight |

Her fingers feel the air
The mantle now so bare From green then into brown Lie scattered all around We hope they will return Like those before did learn Now that their summer's gone We have to carry on Till we rise, I just can't wait Now tell me, who are you To judge my fate? Chorus: Oh, the rain burns on Now that summer's gone Oh, the wind blows strong Now that summer's gone Across the fields we ran To emerald castles, banned By rule of modern man Who built a winterland Then as the seasons change He'll fly and hide away Above a cloud of words On wings of gold I heard We must rise, it's not too late Now tell me, who are you To change our fate? Chorus |

I've been flat out of luck
Spent my very last buck Can't sink no lower than this I'm so broken inside Had to spit out my pride This ain't no way to exist Every place that I go Everyone that I meet Sees me like I'm some dog in the street And it's bringin' me down to my knees Now I'm prayin', prayin' Prayin' for a miracle I'm prayin', prayin' Prayin' for a miracle Prayin' for a miracle Since I left you that night Less than nothing's gone right Living this hell that I made So I'm back at your feet I'm admitting defeat Girl, I never felt so afraid Just give back my life I admit my mistakes Now I'm willing to do whatever it takes I'm begging you now, can't you see That I'm prayin', prayin' Prayin' for a miracle Prayin', prayin' Prayin' for a miracle Prayin' for a miracle Don't walk away 'Cause I know I'm still worth savin' Can you forgive the way I turned my back on you And I'm prayin', prayin' Prayin' for a miracle Prayin', prayin' Prayin' for a miracle ... |

The sun was shining
The sky was crying It just tore apart And down came the rain And I was soaking Yeah I was freezing But I was feeling No kind of pain Come a fireball I held it in my hand You see before you A man who's known greatness I had a vision A revelation I took a look inside of me And I am a sensation Days like these I feel like I can change the world Days like these I feel like I can change the world It's either easy Or it's impossible And if you ain't got it You ain't never gonna get it But once you find it You gotta grab it Reach down your own throat And yank it to the surface That may be brutal May be gory But whatever else it is It's my story And I believe it Yeah, I can see it I sing it out, shout it out Gimme death or glory Days like these I feel like I can change the world Days like these I feel like I can change the world Days like these, days like these I think I'll move a mountain or two Days like these, days like these Anything you want you know I'll get it for you Days like these I feel like I can change the world The sun was shining I was crying I saw a thousand people Singing in the rain And I was thinking About the Indians And how they say true wisdom Only comes from pain Come a rumbling Humbling feeling Like things will never Ever be the same But what doesn't kill you Only makes you stronger Today I'm strong enough And anyway, I love the rain Days like these I feel like I can change the world Days like these I feel like I can change the world |

Heat Of The Moment
by Asia I never meant to be so bad to you One thing I said that I would never do One look from you and I would fall from grace And that would wipe this smile right from my face Do you remember when we used to dance And incidence arose from circumstance One thing lead to another we were young And we would scream together songs unsung It was the heat of the moment Telling me what your heart meant Heat of the moment shone in your eyes And now you find yourself in 82 The disco hotspots hold no charm for you You can't concern yourself with bigger things You catch the pearl and ride the dragon's wings And when your looks are gone and you're alone How many nights you sit beside the phone What were the things you wanted for yourself Teenage ambition you remember well |

Only Time Will Tell
by Asia You're leaving now It's in your eyes There's no disguising it It really comes as no surprise To find that you planned it all along I see it now Becomes so clear Your insincerity And me all starry-eyed You'd think that I would have known by now Now, sure as the sun will cross the sky The lie is over Lost, like the tears that used to tide me over CHORUS: Only time will tell One thing is sure That time will tell Only time will tell If you were wrong The brightest ring around the moon Will darken when I die Now sure as the sun will cross the sky The lying's over Gone, like the tears that used to tide me over You're leaving now It's in your eyes There's no disguising it It really comes as no surprise To find that you planned it all along Only time will tell I see it now, become so clear Only time will tell Your insincerity And me all starry-eyed You'd think that I would have known by now Now, sure as the sun will cross the sky The lie is over Lost, like the tears that used to tide me over Only time will tell You're on your own inside your room Only time will tell You're claiming victory You were just using me And there is no one you can use now Only time will tell One thing is sure... |

When I ride the hounds of hell
Twist my foot, I nearly fell I was lucky I was alive One look back, I could have died I was the sole survivor Sole survivor, sole survivor Solitary fire When I saw it I was amazed One time glory right in my gaze I saw the sorry, I saw the joy Light in the darkness none could destroy And from the wreckage I will arise Cast the ashes back in their eyes See the fire I will defend Just keep on burning right to the end I'll be the sole survivor Sole survivor |

Loneliness, a constant friend and lover
I know well Crowded rooms the iron bar That surround me Trying hard to catch your eye Just once, you see Knowing from this moment if you did We could be Chorus: One step closer Closer than we are One step closer Closer than before So many lines, you've heard them all A lie in every one From men who never understand Your personality And though we never even met No talking needs to be done The hum of conversation will disolve you Into me Chorus x2 Chorus |

Fate looks certain but there's nothing guaranteed
Want for nothing, but is nothing what you need? Always pushing but you're never satisfied I did believe you 'til I found out that you lied Chorus: Time and time again Time and time again again For what I give you I get nothing in return Can't forgive you watching all your bridges burn All day long I sat and watched you do it wrong Have to say that's how you did it all along Chorus But others wouldn't see things you could only see And someone showed you, then why was it always me You knew the limit you were always out of bounds How could I trust you when I caught you messing 'round Chorus |

They decorated all the generals Who fought the wars behind the lines They had forgotten all the soldiers The brandy put them way behind the times Insanity has found its way to TV screens Vision seems impossible to me They fight {they fight} for king {for king} and country I never would have thought this in my {chorus} Wildest dreams Wildest dreams Wildest dreams Wildest dreams The evening comes, we sit and watch the VJs Clips and rushes come from who knows where From Washington across to California With fighting breaking out in Leicester Square We see the soldiers moving on to victory And children trampled under marching feet They fight {they fight} for king {for king} and country How many millions will they put to sleep? {chorus} Wildest dreams Wildest dreams Wildest dreams Wildest dreams Fly away... No, not in this world No, not in the next No, not in my wildest dreams They recommended euthanasia For non-conformists anywhere Some men's dreams for others turn to nightmares This never would have happened in my {chorus} Fly away... No, not in this world No, not in the next No, not in my wildest dreams... |

Gazing at our sunrise
Reflected in your clear eyes Misty morning forest smoke fires Make our way through the broken day I couldn't stand to stay Without you We must keep moving While the light is clearing Leaving your dark world behind you You have to run Life is just begun I'll never be alone Without you One chilling thought Come screaming through the dark I saw a yellow moon at midnight And now you woke Glowing in the smoke I'm suddenly alone Without you Wanting things the way they used to be You don't know what that can do to me One more day, maybe never Might as well be forever Outside the light,fading as I write And another night reminds me As I sleep, memory that I keep It's just another night Without you It seems so long I've been holding on Since I felt my arms around you Time will go, both of us will know Never be a day Without you |

The door swings open but you won't go it
You hate the movie that you haven't seen You couldn't see what I have in mind I see you laughing but you're Cutting it, cutting it fine You never should have done those things to me There's one thread left 'tween you and history And while our temperature is rising high I'm warning you that you are Cutting it, cutting it fine Cutting it, cutting it fine... You gambled all on one important game Now take the debt and don't complain Your game was up, I saw it all the time I saw that vice, girl, you're Cutting it, cutting it fine Your sole advisor watch out for yourself You never listen to anyone else You were the one who ignored the signs Dancing on a fine line Cutting it, cutting it fine Cutting it, cutting it fine... |

All through the winter I thought I'd never see you again
Oh God where were you when I needed you I know that you, no, you would never have betrayed me I thought I'd die, why? All the reasons still evade me But you're back Chorus: Now I can see you Now I can feel you Now that I want you Now I can touch you Next to me Here it comes Here comes the feeling Here comes that same old feeling Here comes the feeling Here comes that same old feeling This is for real, I never felt so good before I see the world through different eyes Now that you're back, nothing in the least can overcome me Misery gone, plus all the doubt that overran me But you're back Chorus Chorus |

I saw you standing hand in hand
But now you come to me the solitary man And I know what it is that made us live Such ordinary lives The where to go, the who to see No one could sympathize The smile has left your eyes The smile has left your eyes And I've become a rolling stone I don't know where to go Or what to call my own But I can see that black horizon Looming ever close to view It's over now, it's not my fault See how this feels for you The smile has left your eyes The smile has left your eyes I never thought I'd see you Standing there with him So don't come crawlin' back to me I saw you standing hand in hand But now you come to me the solitary man And I know what it is that made us live Such ordinary lives The where to go, the who to see No one could sympathize The smile has left your eyes Now it's too late you realized Now there's no one can sympathize Now that the smile has left your eyes Now it's too late you realized Now there's no one can sympathize Now it's too late you realized Now that the smile has left your eyes The smile has left your eyes |

Plain evil, I know what's on your mind
Never say you're leaving me behind No trouble, get that from the start You know the cost of loving is your heart I would never leave you I would never go I would never leave you Never in a million, never in a million Never in a million years Pure pleasure, the love that's in your eyes You never give me feelings in disguise Same fever, it comes on all the time Always lets me know what's on my mind Chorus Live angel, you come to me and cry Like tears of joy come raining from the sky I'd never leave you, you knew that from the start I'll give it to you straight from the heart I would never leave you Never in a million years I would never go Never in a million years Chorus |

Walking through the snow kicking my heels
Seems that sunlight never felt so good before Bet you really don't know how it feels I don't have to answer to no one no more And better I've never felt Nothing to show, but nothing to lose, I'm on my own Cast your mind back not so long ago I was always busy playing by the rules Bet you thought I really didn't know You were double dealing, now you're back at school Something you didn't learn Faith in myself Gives me the strength to carry on I'll do what I want to anyway I'll do what I want and I'll do it in My Own Time Don't give that same old pack of lies I'll tell you the story how it really is You think you always had me under ties Someone better tell you that the table's turned Getting your fingers burned, how does it feel? Now it's for real this is the deal I'll do what I want to anyway I'll do what I want and I'll do it in My Own Time is on my side again And one thing I intend Is to do it in My Own Time |
