Standin' in the Rain

[No lyrics]

. . .

Evil Woman

[No lyrics]

. . .


Don't want to talk, don't want to walk
Don't want to do anything
Don't want to kick, don't want to scream
Don't want to sleep, don't want to dream
Just want to sit, just want to stare
Do what you want I don't care
Wait for the phone, wait for the ring
Don't want to do anything

Chorus

Don't want to work, don't want to play
Just sit around everyday
Don't want to dance, don't want to sing
Don't want to do anything
Don't want to laugh, don't want to cry
Just want to sit and wonder why
It's just too much without your touch
Don't want to do anything

Chorus

. . .

Showdown

Can't Get It out of My Head

[No lyrics]

. . .


Long hair, flashing eyes
The kind of hips that make you fantasize
A slow smile, just meant to tease
One look and you'll be weak at the knees
They got my head in a whirl
'cos I can't get enough of those whiskey girls

They got the world at their fingertips
With just a look and lick of the lips
They understand the rhythm of the night
I'm in a daze, I don't know wrong from right
They got my head in a whirl
'cos I can't get enough of those whiskey girls

Chorus
Hypnotised - by the whiskey girls
Compromised - out of this world

Lord above, could this be love
Ain't no doubt about it
I'm crazy about the whiskey girls

Whiskey girls are out on the town
They'll break your heart, they'll bring you down
Whiskey girls are out of control
For just one touch you'd sell your soul

The moon is high I'm getting out of the line
Whishful thinking with a one track mind
I'm having flashes, oh can't you see
They're walking through my private fantasy
Wearing only a necklace of pearls
Those slow walking, long-legged whiskey girls

Chorus twice

. . .

Livin' Thing

[No lyrics]

. . .


I'm lying here, I know the night must fall
The edge of darkness is so near
So hold back the night, hold back the night
It's the darkness that I fear

And in my heart there's not a shadow of a doubt
The final truth waits there fore me
Nowhere to hide, nowhere to hide
From the memories

Chorus
Give me one more tomorrow
All these todays alone
Mean nothing anymore
Give me one more tomorrow
Another chance to find

What I've been searching for

Inner voices in the quiet of the night
Angry silence calls to me
There's no time for tears, no time for tears
Find a way to break free

Chorus

I'm praying for a little piece of heaven tonight
I'm searching for some help from a friend
And all I need is a miracle
To help me through this night that never ends, it never ends

Chorus twice

. . .

Mr. Blue Sky

Telephone Line

[No lyrics]

. . .


(slow)

It ain't necessarily so
No, it ain't necessarily so
These things that you're liable,
To read in the bible.
No it ain't necessarily so

(jammin')

You bet that you can't be wrong.
No place where you don't belong.
There's nothin' you don't know.
But it ain't necessarily so

To you there's never no doubt.
It's either in or it's out.
You sure put up quite a show.
But it ain't necessarily so

I said hold, let your bad self go.
Hold on, caus' you already know.

It's never maybe or might.


To you it's black or it's white.
If I say yes you say no.
But it ann's necessarily so

Hold on, let your bad self go.
Hold on, cause' you already know.

You think that you can't be wrong.
No place where you don't belong.
There's nothing' you don't know.
But it ain't necessarily so

Ain't necessarily so
Ain't necessarily so

No no no no
No it ain't necessarily so
No no no no
No no no no

No no no no
No it ain't necessarily so.
No no no no
No it ain't necessarily so.

. . .


I wait till everyone's asleep
Then out into the night I creep
No one can see me now
Or hear me running, soundlessly

The moon's the only light I need
To search for food, young ones to feed
But as the dawn is drawing near the earth, my way's not clear
I'm trapped on the outside

Moonlight save me, moonlight save me
Moonlight save me, moonlight save me

Unearthly fear, it grips my skin
Unearthly sound, the hunt begins
I hear excited cries
But dare not look from where I'm hiding

The multi-coloured humans ride

Soon they will find me where I hide
The brown and white tormentors
Begin to howl and then I'm running

Moonlight save me

I cut across the trail I left five miles before
One chance to throw them off my scent but I'm not sure
An elder told me it had worked sometime before

My heart is beating like a drum
I make the ridge, but can't go on
I turn to face my death
But nothing comes to stop me breathing

Down in the clearing now I see
They're searching all around for me
Confusion everywhere
But I am safe up here, I've won, I've won, I've won, I've won, I've won

What can you tell me, of the perfect man.
What can you tell me, now I don't quite understand.
We lose our grip, we glide and stall.
Some things come easy, some don't come at all.

We chip away at the perfect man.
What can you show me, now I don't quite understand.
Eye to eye nothing left to say
But will you really throw it all away.

We trip, we stumble, and we all fall down.
Things go wrong, though are strong.
We slip, we fumble, and we all fall down
Round and round, we all fall down.
Sometime....

No matter how we try to keep things straight.
It makes no difference, while we cause our fate.
We burn our candle unaware.
While on our knees we cry in prayer.

We trip, we stumble, and we all fall down.
Pain wont last, this too shall pass.
We slip, we fumble, and we all fall down
Round and round, time and time, again.

But ahhhh,
If it's so simple then explain to me.
How pain is so close to ecstasy.
How change can make you feel so free.

Ahhhh,
If we were meant to be such perfect fools.
Then why do we always break the rules,
Crashing through life's scenery.

We trip, we stumble, and we all fall down.
Angry cries and desperate lies.
We slip, we fumble, and we all fall down
Hearts to mend, sun comes up again.

. . .


I saw an ant devour sherman mountain.
Slip across the floor in the river of honey.
I saw the locust drinking from a fountain.
It smiled at me as I paid my money.

Chorus
Caus' I'm a witness, witness, see the writing on the wall.
I'm a witness, witness, I say I've seen it all.
Caus' I'm a witness, witness, I've got all the proof.
I'm a witness, witness, I swear to tell the truth.

I saw her buying in the face of fashion.
Who'll believe with her little white lies.
I saw her arrive on my bed of passion.
But I never saw a look of love in her eyes.

Chorus

Some days my eyes can see for miles and miles around.
Some nights my dreams just take me deep underground.
My minds a time machine, I'm in the future and the past.
The past... scrape away...

(violin solo)

Chorus

Chorus

Witness, witness, witness
Witness, witness, witness
Witness, witness, witness
Witness, witness, witness

Chorus
The night has a thousand eyes
And they're all on you
The night has a thousand ears
Listening to your cries
Let it work it's magic
Let it work it's magic
The night has a thousand eyes

Verse 1
You, you had to slip away
After all that spark
You, said all that you could say
And slipped into the dark
I could not let you go
Alone into the night
I had to let you know

The magic there, in the night air

Chorus
The night has a thousand eyes
And they're all on you
The night has a thousand ears

Listening to your cries
Let it work it's magic
Let it work it's magic
The night has a thousand eyes

Verse 2
You, somewhere out in the dark
Runs a wounded heart
You, stumbling in the night
In the air of after light
You take along the fears
Did you waste these years,
And did they warn you
Of the night zone all alone

Sometimes it takes a fight
To keep everything on track,
And sometimes it takes a starry night
To bring the magic back
This was the time
And this was the place
With starlight on your face
And the moon on the rise,
The night has a thousand eyes
