I stand alone
Without a care Open the door But no-one's there The lonely night My only friend Love's wrongs are right I can't defend La Passione La Passione La Passione La Passione And now I know What I've become It haunts me so But I'll go on and on I know the pain inside Is the price you pay to ride Into the brightest flame Never the same again La Passione La Passione La Passione La Passione You dare to dream Take the chance and go Desire has taken hold Now the passion haunts you so La Passione La Passione La Passione La Passione |

Could this be true, could this be me?
the one who kept himself so high and free. Caught up in the highest game of all and all my defences tumble and fall. And only the ace of hearts can save me now. (Ace of hearts). I wake in early hours and I call your name. And it's your face I see pressed up against my window pane. And suddenly I realise as the tears start to flow like rain from the sky only the ace of hearts can save my now. Ace of hearts, tell me what's this game you're playing. Ace of hearts, it's all down to you, yeah. I'm lost, lost like a child in a strange dream. but open your doors and pull me... pull me... pull me through... And I am flying like the wind in the dead of night. I flying so high, searching for them landing lights. I've never been this way before, but darling all I need your love more and more. Only the ace of hearts can save me now. I said only the ace of hearts can save me now. I said only the ace of hearts can save me now.

I see the morning light - come screaming thru my room
I fel the devils eyes - and smell his cold perfume THere is no mercy here - Ccould not be a darker day But I ain't going down - I ain't going down this way Oh I know your face - I've seen it a thousand times In my darkest dream - I have witnessed every single crime You think I'm joking - I'm wet with fear But I've made up my mind today I ain't going down I ain't going down this way ⓒ Chris Rea & Jazzee Blue/edel |

All summer long we were happy we were one
We didn't think of an ending to our play All summer long nights of wine, days of song It couldn't last, our ageing sun had to go I will always remember you Watching the waves in the wind The beach dogs hiding from the rain Suddenly my colours have turned to grey Will I ever see your face again And all winter long I will walk my lonely road Waiting for you and your return I will always remember you |

I've seen them all I've seen them come And I see them fall I've watched them win I've watched them loose Since you've been around No-one gets to choose Because when the game begins And the time is now When there is no more talking Only here and now There is only here and now I ain't seen anything qute like you Ain't been anyone quite like you Ten thousand princes All backs against the wall Then Thousand losers When the winner comes to call How they scream in frustration Then thousand reasons why The rhetoric is endless I see the laughter in your eyes Because when the game begins And the time is now When there is no more talking Only here and now Only here and now I ain't seen anything qute like you Ain't been anyone quite like you |

From somewhere far away Cut in deep to the bone Though I am not with you now I feel you close somehow Too many days, so far from home And I send my dream to you And I will go on As long as I have your love I see your candle burn, You wait for my return I feel your shadow in the night The question still remains, oh love its still the same Oh I'll get by, Don't you know I'll be alright As long as I have your love |

Everywhere I turn it's got a hold on me Between the devil and the deep blue sea Everywhere I run it won't let me be Caught between the devil and the deep blue sea Between the devil and the deep blue sea Can somebody somebody somebody help me please Between the thunder and the driving rain Could I ever be, be the same again Caught between the devil and the deep blue sea Holding on Waiting for some good luck to come Come my way, set me free It's that old boy himself and he always knew Sooner or later If you don't say what's true you'll end in chains And you'll always be Caught between the devil and the deep blue sea |

Black dog barking in the cold grey light
He pulls the chain and he pulls it tight This ain't no lonesome wail that boy ain't faking He bites the steel and he claws the ground He pulls again and he spins around His eyes are raging and his burning lungs are steaming He wanna walk in the sun Feel love like anyone No one knows that black dog better than I I said no one knows that black dog better than I When I see his running I can see me Teeth in the collar and he's tearing it free Spit out the leather and the cold studs that kept you from singing Run till you're bleeding run till you're hot till the memory of all this you've long since forgot Run till forever till the bells of your freedom are ringing He wanna walk in the sun Feel love like anyone No one knows that black dog better than I I said no one knows that black dog better than I |

Like 'Bleak House fog' seems everywhere The truth has frozen into stone And hope lies freezing in the midnight air Though dark our days may seem This is a different dream Their freedom light don't shine at all So I will light a candle for you Keep it burning in the night And pray that you are all right I will light a candle for you Little candle burning bright When school yard heroes disappeared The little girl, she stands alone Oh I believe you if you say A prayer can help to get her home So I will light a candle for you Keep it burning in the night And pray that you are all right I will light a candle for you Little candle burning bright |

Misty eyes on a misty day
Come across a place like this along your way You walk straight in to that sweet and tender trap And you know you're lost and found And there ain't no going back Spend the rest of your days playing all the hardest games Just to get back to that place again And memories oh how they stick to you You know there ain't a thing, not a single thing you can do On Chisel hill I've been ten thousand miles from this place and seen it I swear I've woke up happy thinking that I was there It's the place I love, it's where I wanna be And I won't give up until I get to see A little something in there to call my own Pass the time of day and head off home The evening shadows on the dry stone walls The night draws in and the ale house calls And happy I will be When the road goes no further than what I see When past here it's nowhere to go And I ain't gonna give up until I get see Those angel eyes looking up at me The prince of peace and time is standing still On Chisel hill |

I'm coming off the ropes (he's going down) Yes I'm coming off the ropes I'm coming off the ropes He made me angry now I only need to straighten up I'm going to show him how I can hear someone count to ten Seems like a lifetime, But I'll tell you when I know I'm safe down here So till then, must have been a lucky swing Two years ago, I would have not let him in I'm coming off the ropes (he's going down) |

You got to break the back of the mould you were made in
Crack the shell, that's how it's got to be Nothing for certain, ain't no way of knowing Only believe in things that you see Flow with the river, run with the tide Mix with your brother, 'cos he's right by your side Crack that mould Little pretty chicken you can't stay in there forever Now there ain't no such thing as only one kind of weather You got to bend, learn, take the rough with the smooth Understand everything Crack that mould Now there ain't no such thing as only one kind of weather Pick up them shoes, go running down that road You know that precondition is such a heavy load You got to live love, put down that written word Crack that mould Now there ain't no such thing as only one kind of weather |

On the restless road to nowhere
There's no certain peace it seems Desire to keep on moving till the river of dreams Is it just because someone told you Is it just because you found Old freedom feels uneasy when duty is around When allegiance asks the questions Old freedom twists and turns And chokes on codes of honour On the sword of no return And it's the curse of the traveller The curse of the traveller Got a hold of me And it won't let you be And in sleepless nights You'll call her name And feel loneliness cold to the bone And when the daylight breaks This old tired heart aches To be such a long way, such a long way from home And you long for the harbourlights But you'll never be free Of the craving for refuge And the call of the sea Always wanting to sell up But always needing to buy So till the road leads to somewhere And that river runs dry It's the curse of the traveller Ain't gonna let you be The curse of the traveller And it sure got a hold of me |

Sometimes I think I go insane
So what's a boy supposed to do Working just to pay my way But baby when the day is through Just wanna have a good time Hey! I've got my shoe, shoes shined I'm gonna dance, dance, dance Walking down the city street They don't like the kind of stuff I play But feel that bass beneath your feet Man don't take my only life away Just wanna have a good time Hey! I've got my shoe, shoes shined I'm gonna dance, dance, dance I'm scared when I wake up sometimes it gets so fast I want it high and higher but it never lasts And all I have starts Friday night with my first drink Don't tell me, don't say anything, don't wanna think Just wanna dance |

It's all become a fantasy
She sits and reads about Tiffany's I moan all day about the state of the world And the sun beats down Her book if full of pastel shades Filigree Femmes in lusts of jade While all around the bullets flew And the sun beats down Oh heavy heart, as deep as the endless sea A thought for every fish, why don't you let them be Your book's so frivol, but I'm tired of mine Show me some Make me laugh and make me sing Dancing girls Make me laugh and make me sing Dancing girls So many years but nothing's changed We curse the fire but we still feed it's flames My cards repeating the same sad song Why don't you put them down? Tonight is young, as young as she needs to be There's room for love, as much as there needs to be Show me a drink, show me a smile Show me some Make me laugh and make me sing Dancing girls Make me laugh and make me sing Dancing girls |

Beat up soul Looking to find a smile Ain't nobody here to give you the reason why I need the wings of an eagle Need to find me a way to fly Come on and dance with me baby Dancing my blues away Yeah dance with me baby Dance 'til my blues can't stay Come on and dance with me baby Dancing my blues away There is something worth knowing Written behind those eyes Well I've got tears by the truckload Let's laugh 'til they all run dry Let's steal the wings from those angels And kiss what we know goodbye Come on and dance with me baby Dancing my blues away Yeah dance with me baby Dance 'til my blues can't stay Come on and dance with me baby Dancing my blues away Repeat |

Diamond dream when the sun don't shine
I close my eyes to see Twelve wild horses in silver chains Callin' out to me Ooh Daytona Shine your light on me Ooh Daytona Shine your light on me Now she ain't easy So you take good care Or she will scream down on your lust She can please you Like no other Or she can leave you eating dust Ooh Daytona Shine your light on me Burning passion Light my day Let me sit inside your wonder Cloudless daydream Oh dance of dances To have tamed the sound of thunder Ooh Daytona Shine your light on me Ooh Daytona |

All change on then merry go line
Everybody looking for a sign Jumping up and down when the switch goes on Nobody knows where it's coming from I'm here watching, keeping well away Oh I'm gonna live it in my own way Singing no mister, not me I'm staying here with guys on free In deep water I see a captain on a distant shore He's got a dream, he wants to make it law He's got my number, he's got a plan He try to get you any way he can Wants to own everything he sees While I'm here, well he ain't with me Singing no mister, no way I got my own deep water Deep, deep water |

Oh getaway and don't come back
Who do you think you're fooling with lies like that? You have dreams that set the rain on fire Burning with a cheap desire And it's plain as grey that what you say Have meanings of their own My love, she don't need diamonds My love's more than a sweet dream And she don't need diamonds She shakes her hip to the tambourine And she don't need diamonds If you can't love me for nothing They you can't love me at all And it's plain as grey that what you say Have meanings of their own We all got to dance, take a chance? But babe you should have stayed at home My love, my love, she don't need diamonds |

Sweet serenade, in your shade
May I rest Just for a while, won't stay long I'll do my best To help you help me to find some friends That I have lost Who lie in lands where memories And dreams are lost The breeze that blew around her hair that day The timeless dress that flowed in endless sway I almost touched her shoulder, she almost turned to face me A thousand distant summers... away |

Each single day I get up and make my way
And it all comes into view It's like a part in a play You can turn it around in so many different ways But it's still the part you play And so to you I dedicate This role they have handed me And I will do it for your love Down in the street you can win or lose To that crazy beat But you'll never change the tune 'Cos the tune is the song And song is the game of life, we just come and go But we can laugh and we can bend Together though, me and you So I will do it for your love Look around, see that you see There's no sense in being so blue Now I've got to have a reason for seeing this out Other than seeing it through So I will do it for your love |

Do you still dream of summer nights
The endless roads between the distant lights Do you still find yourself On strange and long highways Drifting into unknown phase Do you still dream of summer days The sunlight dancing on white rolling waves The everlasting taste of innocent desire The atom splitting of its fire Do you still dream? Do you see that tunnel showing any sign of light Does fear still wake you in the night Do you still dream? ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By REA, CHRISTOPHER ANTON <i>Lyrics © Warner/Chappell Music, Inc.</i> |

She's got her independence in a hard fast way
She's got me chasing shadows with everything I try to say Some say she's far too quick, some say she's slow to learn But all I know is she gave me love that left afterburn And its fire feeds me I'm hungry still So baby listen now, I'm at your will But I'm not a flower on your windowsill Don't want your best friend Don't need a Godsend Don't want your new trends I want you She's got a silver sabre with a diamond shine It's not an ego-trip just her frightened way To keep you blind Shadow dancing, nowhere fast You got to meet me half way Girl if it's gonna last I remember that first night I dream of it still I want that feeling and I want that thrill I've always loved you and I always will Take me home |

You give to me E is for the peace, I feel inside E is for the good times That go against the bad times E is for the world you gave us And left us here behind They say Tell me what's so wrong with E That's what I hear them say Tell me what's so wrong with E That's what I hear them say Let's talk about it E is for the reason To live through urban grey E is for the warm glow, That takes the fear away Show us what is better Why don't you stand inside these shoes Oh live with me each Monday... Let's see what you would do... Which world do you live in? Which world did you choose? Hiding the tears, that's all No win No lose They say Tell me what's so wrong with E That's what I hear them say Tell me what's so wrong with E That's what I hear them say Let's talk about it |
