You say that love will capture me
But not unless you give it free
We?re sailing on the seven seas
Sister Ray is on TV
The light of love it shines so bright
That the FBI won?t sleep tonight
?Cause I?m so in awe of you
That I don?t know what to do
And I?m sailing on
The seven seas so blue
Sick and tired and don?t know why
Skin and bone won?t touch the sky
Sex and lies can?t bring me down
?Cause I?ve sold my soul all over town
?Cause I?m so in awe of you
That I don?t know what to do
And I?m sailing on
The seven seas so blue
People try to drag us down
So we learn to swim before we drown
?Cause I?m so in awe of you
That I don?t know what to do
And I?m sailing on
The seven seas so blue
And I?m so in awe of you
That I don?t know what to do
And I?m sailing on
The seven seas so blue

You see the new sensation,
I heard it call your name.
You're running 'round in circles,
You're making right again.
The telephone keeps ringing,
Your head is in the sand,
The future is unfolding,
But it's not what you had planned.
No matter what you do,
There's no escape for you.
You say they've gone too far,
You said I'd take my car.
So it always ends the same,
And there's no one else to blame...
But I'd die
If you would call my name.
Caught between two evils,
I should've stayed at home.
To wish upon, and hold the phone,
When in love you want...
No matter what you do,
There's no escape for you.
You say they've gone too far,
You said I'd take my car.
So it always ends the same,
And there's no one else to blame...
But I'd die
If you would call my name.
Oh yes, I'd die,
If you would call my name.

I want some energy
the ultimate discovery
electric blue for me
never more to be free
electricity
nuclear and heb
come fuels from the sea
wasted electricity

I want some energy
electricity
all we need is to learn to save
and if were made to throw away
it doesn't change the city cost
the alternative is only one
the final source of energy
solar electricity

electricity

it worries me this kind of thing
how you hope to live alone
and occupy your waking hours
we're taking sides again
i just wept i couldn't understand
why you started this again
every day you send me more
what makes it worse is this plan of yours
to ensure I don't forget
I'd write and tell you that I've burnt them all
but you never send me your address
and i've kept them anyway
so don't ask me if I think it's true
that communication can bring hope to those
who have gone their seperate ways
it hardly touched me when it should have then
and memories are uncertain friends
when recalled by messages
coded messages always hurt
letters
messages poision

Enola Gay,
you should have stayed at home yesterday
Ah-ha words can't describe the feeling
and the way you lied
These games you play they're going to
end in more than tears some day
Ah-ha Enola Gay it shouldn't ever
have to end this way

It's eight fifteen and that's the time
that it's always been
We got your message on the radio
Conditions normal and you're coming home

Enola Gay, is mother proud of little boy today
Ah-ha this kiss you give,
it's never going to fade away

Enola Gay,
it shouldn't ever have to end this way
Ah-ha Enola Gay,
it shouldn't fade in our dreams away
It's eight fifteen and that's the time
that it's always been
We got your message on the radio
Conditions normal and you're coming home
Enola Gay, is mother proud of little boy today
Ah-ha this kiss you give,
it's never ever going to fade away

It's my direction, it's my proposal,
it's so hard, it's leading me
astray
My obsession, it's my creation,
you'll understand, it's not important
now

All I need is coordination,
I can't imagine my destination
My intention, ask my opinion,
with no excuse, my feelings still remain

My feelings still remain

A little catholic girl
Who's fallen in love
A face on a page
A gift from above
She should have known better
Than to giver her heart
She should have known better
Than to ever part
Without me
Without me
I gave her everything
That i ever owned
I think she understood
But she never spoke
She shouldn't oughta try
To be that way
She shouldn't have to go there
Ever again
Without me
Without me
Now listen to us good
And listen well
Listen to us all
And everything we tell
We should have known better
Than to giver her away
We should have known better
To this very day
Without me
Without me
Now listen joan of arc
All you gotta do
Is say the right words
And i'll be coming through
Hold you in my arms
And take you
Right away
Now she's on her way
To another land
We never understood
Why she gave her hand
She shouldn't oughta promise
Because it's just pretend
I know she doesn't mean it
And she'll leave again
Without me
Without me
Without me
Without me

If joan of arc
Had a heart
Would she give it as a gift
To such as me
Who longs to see
How an agnel ought to be
Her dream's to give
Her heart away
Like an orphan on a wave
She cared so much
She offered up
Her body to the grave

No
no no no
no no no

Tesla girls Tesla girls
testing out theories
electric chairs and dynamos
dressed to kill they're killing me
but heaven knows their recipe
No no no
You wouldn't believe me if I said
the things I've seen went over my head
I've been patient heaven knows
I've learnt the rules and how it goes
I can't sit still or settle down
and when I walk I don't touch the ground
see those girls they're heaven blessed
I guess it's so they know best
Tesla girls Tesla girls
writing in their diaries
now and then they'll watch TV
now and then they'll speak to me
but heaven knows their recipe
No no no
You wouldn't believe them if they said
the things they've seen went over their heads
they've been patient heaven knows
they seem to care and so it goes
they can't sit still or settle down
and when they walk
they don't touch the ground
see those girls they're heaven blessed
I guess it's so they know best
Tesla girls
Tesla girls
Tesla girls
Tesla girls
Tesla girls Tesla girls
testing out theories
electric chairs and dynamos
dressed to kill they're killing me
Tesla girls Tesla girls
now and then I watch TV
now and then they'll speak to me
but heaven knows their recipe

No no no

Across every ocean
for the sake of locomotion
but I wouldn't have a notion
how to save my soul
I walk down the sidewalk
run down the boardwalk
stop and make small talk
but I can't say no to you
I can't say no I can't say yes
I cant' even write down my own address
I can't touch Heaven it's a little too far
it's the only way to travel
got dreaming on a parr
I'm staring through the window
wonder where you are
moving through the landscape at a million miles an hour
Across every nation
from the harbour to the station
it's a source of inspiration
it's a power to the state
they run down the railways
sail across the seaways
fly through the airways
but they can't say no
to you
I can't stand up I can't stand still
I know you wouldn't like it if I told you how I feel
I just want to say that it's only common sense
but the words always fail me at my own expense
I'm staring out the window
wonder where you are
moving through the landscape at a million miles an hour
Across every ocean
for the sake of locomotion
but I wouldn't have a notion
how to save my soul
I walk down the sidewalk
run down the boardwalk
stop and make small talk
but I can't say no to you

Talking loud and clear
saying just what I feel
lying in the grass
with the sun on our backs
it doesn't really matter
what we do or what we say
with every little movement
we give ourselves away

Opposite and opposite
decisions are red
facing one another
with words that couldn't hurt
with every little word
you're getting closer to me
talking loud and clear
saying just what we feel today

Talking loud and clear
saying just what we feel
lying in the grass
we've got time on our hands
body next to body
with silence all around
we understand each other
but didn't make a sound
Promises and promises
of vows we shall return
facing one another
I thought my heart would burn
you turn to move away
but then get closer to me
talking loud and clear
saying just what we feel today

Talk to me, don't lie to me
Save your breath Don't look at me,
don't smile at me
Just close your eyes
I was so impressed by you
I was running blind
I would fall for every trick
Every twist of mind Heaven is cold
Without any soul
It's hard to believeI was so in love with you
Don't say your prayers,
don't build your hopes Just walk away
Don't phone me up,
don't call around Don't waste your time
You were so in awe of me
You were so divine
You would do just anything
To still be mine Heaven is cold
With out any soulIt's hard to believe
I was so in love with you

All the things
you said to meI was so obsessed
You were always talking talking
God I did my best
Heaven is cold With out any soul
It's hard to believeI was so in love with you
Heaven is cold With out any soul
It's hard to believeI was so in love with you
Heaven is cold With out any soul
It's hard to believeI was so in love with you

If you leave don't leave now
Please don't take my heart away
Promise me just one more night
Then we'll go our separate ways
With hours left time on our sides
Now it's fading fast
Every second every moment
We've got to
we've gotta make it last
I touch you once I touch you twice
I won't let go at any price
I need you now like
I needed you then
You always said
we'd still be friends someday
If you leave I won't cry
I won't waste one single day
But if you leave don't look back
I'll be running the other way
Seven years went under the bridge
Like time was standing still
Heaven knows what happens now
You've got to you've gotta say
you will I touch you once
I touch you twice
I won't let go at any price
I need you now like
I needed you then
You always said we'd meet again

I touch you once I touch you twice
I won't let go at any price
I need you now like
I needed you then
You always said
we'd still be friends
I touch you once I touch you twice
I won't let go at any price
I need you now like
I needed you then
You always said
we'd meet again someday

If you leave

Oh if you leave Oh if you leave
Don't look back Don't look back

If you were born in heaven girl
I'd understand so well
But ever since I've met you child
You've made my life such hell
With every day that passes
I fall nearer to the ground
It seems that I've been looking for
Something that won't be found
I was only Dreaming
I was only trying to catch your eye
I was only wishing you would notice me
Instead you said goodbye
Could this be the new answer then
To all the dreams we've made
Could there be some solution please
To rid me of this grace
But every single second
that you held me in your arms
You build me up
You raise me up
You kill me with your charms
I was only Dreaming
I was only trying to catch your eye
I was only wishing you would notice me
Instead you said goodbye

Would you stay with me tonight
Won't you make these feelings last
Can we start this all again
Would that be just to much to ask
I was only Dreaming
I was only trying to catch your eye
I was only wishing you would notice me
Instead you said goodbye
I was only Dreaming
I was only trying to catch your eye
I was only wishing you would notice me
Instead you said goodbye

You say that love will capture me
But not unless you give it free

Born in Kansas on an ordinary plain
Ran to New York but ran away from fame
Only seventeen when all your dreams come true
But all you wanted was someone to undress you
And all the stars you kissed could never ease the pain
Still the grace remains and though the face has changed
You?re still the same
And it?s a long long way from where you want to be
And it?s a long long road, but you?re too blind to see
Frame of silence of an innocent divine
Is a dangerous creation when you fall the test of time
And all the photographs of ghosts of long ago
Still they hurt you so, won?t let go
And you still don?t know
And it?s a long long way from where you want to be
And it?s a long long road, but you?re too blind to see
When you look around yourself now, do you recognize the girl
The one, who broke a thousand hearts, terrified the world
And all the stars you kissed could never ease the pain
Still the grace remains and though the face has changed
You?re still the same
And it?s a long long way from where you want to be
And it?s a long long road, but you?re too blind to see
And it?s a long long way from where you want to be
And it?s a long long road, but you?re too blind to see

Say it isn't right
To be alone tonight
So in love with you
Tell you what i'm gonna
Do about it
I had an idea
Based on a love theme
I had an idea
Based on a love theme
All i ever do
Is what you want me to

When I was only seventeen
My head was full of brilliant dreams
My heart would call and I would gladly go
At twenty one the world was mine
And I was yours and you're divine
And nothing else would matter to us so
I don't believe in destiny
I don't believe in love
I don't believe that anything
Will ever be enough
Man you should have seen us
On the way to venus
Walking on the milky way
It was quite a day hey hey ...
Walking on the big stuff
Acting like we're real tough
Baby we were on our way
So what do you say hey hey ...
As time goes by reality
Destroys your hope and dignity
There's nothing left but shadows on the wall
But just remember who you are
And where you've been you've come so far
And never ever let them see you fall
I don't believe in miracles
I don't believe in truth
I don't believe in anything
Can recreate your youth
Man you should have seen us
On the way to venus
Walking on the milky way
It was quite a day hey hey ...
Walking on the big stuff
Acting like we're real tough
Baby we were on our way
So what do you say hey hey ...
Walking on the milky way.
Man you should have seen us
On the way to venus
Walking on the milky way
It was quite a day hey hey ...

Acting like we're real tough
