Ego

All the time I try to reason with you
But I just cant seem to make you understand
Nothing seems to ever really get through
Cant you feel emotions like any other man

You never cared for anyone (anyone)
You never cared for anyone (at all)
Any love that youve ever given me
You only gave me for your ego

Look at how you wanted all of my tears
Any time you felt you needed security
All the nights you let me out on my own
Thats the thing that you just cant give back to me

You never cared for anyone (anyone)
You never cared for anyone (at all)
Any love that youve ever given me
You only gave me for your ego

Youre only plan it seems is look after number one
You just cant comprehend what it means to love someone

Stay away, get lost, get out of my life
Cant you see the changes now and at last Im free
Any plans I have just dont include you
And thats the one thing you wont take from me

You never cared for anyone (anyone)
You never cared for anyone (at all)
Any love that youve ever given me
You only gave me for your ego

Every time I tried to reason with you
But it seemed that I never made you understand
Nothing ever seemed to ever really get through
Cant you feel emotions like any other man

You never cared for anyone (anyone)
You never cared for anyone (at all)
Any love that youve ever given me
You only gave me for your ego

House Of Salome

Shadows run in the heat of the desert
Hands beat at the door
Someone stands and calls
For the name of salome

As the veils were pushed away
He gazed upon a face
Hed never seen
Was she a dream ?

He heard the sound from a distance voice
Youd better watch out!
Youd better watch out!
He heard the sound from a thousand years
Calling out
Calling out

In the house of salome
You have to surrender

Run with her said the young handmaiden
She will be your queen
All your life youll live
In the dream of salome

Take her mouth and with your hands
Just kiss her painted lips
Dont you make a move
till salome calls you

As the music danced around the desert night
He smelt her perfumed skin
As they made love

He heard the sound of a distant voice
Youd better watch out!
Youd better watch out!
He heard the sound of a thousand years
Calling out
Calling out

In the house of salome
You have to surrender

Just A Feeling

Stand at the mirror and look at my face
See all the changes I know somethings wrong
But when I think back to the love that we had
I look for escape cos I know that its gone

I always looked on the touch of our love
As a soft stream running over me
But I always knew there would be a way out
But for you, not for me
Just a felling

Now all I see is the trace of a smile
Memories forgotten a long time ago
Never believed I could see you this way
I dont know what changed you, Ill just never know

I used to dream there was someone around
Who was there just to watch over me
Out in the crowds there was someone around
Who was meant just for me

Friends say impossible
But I say its got to be

Just a feeling

Repeat to fade

Kids In America

Looking out a dirty old window
Down below the cars in the
City go rushing by
I sit here alone
And I wonder why

Friday night and everyones moving
I can fell the heat
But its shooting
Heading down
I search for the beat in this dirty town

Down town the young ones are going
Down town the young ones are growing

Chorus :

Were the kids in america (x 2)
Everybody live for the music-go-round

Bright lights the music gets faster
Look boy, dont check on your watch
Not another glance
Im not leaving now, honey not a chance

Hot-shot, give me no problems
Much later baby youll be saying never mind
You know life is cruel, life is never kind

Kind hearts dont make a new story
Kind hearts dont grab any glory

Ch.

Come closer, honey thats better
Got to get a brand new experience
Feeling right
Oh dont try to stop baby
Hold me tight

Outside a new day is dawning
Outside sububias sprawling everywhere
I dont want to go baby
New york to east california
Theres a new wave coming I warn you

Ch.

Were the kids
Were the kids
Were the kids in america

Sparks

Caught in the times we live in
Caught in the times we know
Its taking a real hard line
You feel youre becoming a number
Nobody needs your trouble
Gives you the time of day
But kicking the world behind
Wont make it go away
Cos were strong
And were big enough to take
Whatever time will bring
Weve only one life
And weve gotta lot to give
Theres only one time
And weve got to make or break it

Let the sparks fly out again
Let the feelings tell you when
Let the sparks fly out again

Flick of the fingers
And theyll cut you down for sure
You gotta be hard sometimes
And so you pretend its nothing
Finding what to believe in
Thats what its hard to do
Boy there was another time
I saw the best in you
Cos were strong
And were big enough to take
Whatever time will bring

Stay Awhile

Im touching your face and i
Cant get very far
You travel a million miles
Always in the stars
And crossing the clouds
A fading moon
Whispered its goodbye
But as it starts to die

Stay awhile
Show your love
Child amoung the stars
Just stay awhile
Lay with me
Tell me who you are

Ive never believed in much
What can I be worth ?
Im always a shooting star
Falling down to earth
I prayed in my heart
Youd never know
Feelings wouldnt show
But now before you go

Stay awhile
Show your love
Child amoung the stars
Just stay awhile
Lay with me
Tell me who you are

And crossing the clouds
A fading moon
Whispers its goodbye
But as it starts to die

Stay awhile
Show your love
Child amoung the stars
Just stay awhile
Lay with me
Show me who you are

Just stay awhile

Take Me Tonight

Written by ricky & marty wilde

Lost in the dark the lovers embrace
As the last song plays, everyone makes for home
Now its just me and you alone

And I wont really care if we cant meet again
You just live your life Im just a night to pass
Youre just a dream that couldnt last

Take me tonight
Take me tonight
Take me tonight
I want you, I want you - want me too ?

No way of knowing just where my lifes going
Who cares if its wrong or its right
When all I believe in is just how Im feeling tonight

Oh, take me tonight
Take me tonight
Take me tonight
I want you, I want you

To fade

View From A Bridge

View from a bridge, cant take anymore
View from a bridge, cant take anymore

I guess it all began about a year ago
Like a cheap love magazine
You know the kind you read about
And have to laugh
At the pages in between
Now I cant believe that fool inside is me
cos I just cant face the world
Ive grown to see

View from a bridge, cant take anymore
View from a bridge, cant take anymore

I saw you kissing her
I saw you making her
In the soft sheets in between
But when you turned around
I saw your eyes were fire
And you crashed out all my dreams

And like a fool I just stood there
And let it go
I should have fought right back
And let my feelings show

View from a bridge, cant take anymore
View from a bridge, cant take anymore

You sure as hell knew how
To make a fool out of me
Well you cut me down
For the things you want
And now its killing me

Ill lay it on the line now
Youre running out of time now

But then a voice said jump
And I just let go
And Im floating out in space
But then I feel your arms
And I turn around
To a ghost without a face

And I just dont know
Whats fact or fantasy
cos when I look below the bridge
I see its me

Wendy Said

Lost in the night, out on the streets
And blown into the wind
She was just heading for trouble
When they got her downstairs

Cut by the lights, strands of her hair
Just tumble from her cheeks
Shes just another caucasion in a crime worn day

Inside her heart was breaking
No-one knew what shed been through
Inside her minds escaping
To a world that no-one knew

Lost in the night, somebody said go easy on the girl
Youll never get a confession
If you treat her that way
Two pairs of eyes shout at her face and late into the night
They heard a softer whisper saying
Let me go

Inside her heart was breaking
No-one knew what shed been through
Inside her minds escaping
To a world that no-one knew

Wendy sadd has flown away
Wendy found her freedom
No-one else could follow there
Not inside the world of wendy sadd

Somebody shouts, something is wrong and panick hits the room
They said she looked at the ceiling and the lights went out
Clutched in her hand
All they could find was a letter that shed wrote
It said try and forgive them
For what theyve done

Inside her heart was breaking
No-one knew what shed been through
Inside her minds escaping
To a world that no-one knew

Wendy sadd has flown away
Wendy found her freedom
No-one else could follow there
Not inside the world of wendy sadd

Words Fell Down

I wake up in the morning, looking for reaction
Then I see your faces, only for fraction
Did you hurt my feelings ? you just nailed me to the wall

Never say youre sorry, never show emotion
Never show a good hand, never give a notion
Dont you feel its obscene ? do you feel a thing at all ?

Chorus:
cos you come right back with the same old story
Words fell down
Words fell down
You walk right back to the sound of glory
Words fell down
Words fell down
Oh, oh, oh, its so helpless
Oh, oh, oh, its so helpless, its so helpless

Always a deceiver, never any answers
Living in the shadows, taking any chances
When you get a good line, come and talk in to my face

Chorus

You fight right back with the same reaction
Words fell down
Words fell down
The same old show with the same old caption
Words fell down
Words fell down
Oh, oh, oh, its so helpless
Oh, oh, oh, its so helpless, its so helpless
