Never Surrender (bonus track)
. . .


Look at them all on the inside
Look at them wasting away
Walking around like they're hypnotized
Look, no bars on the cage

This is where they're living
Same as where they'll die
Nothing lasts forever
Can someone draw the line

Do we ever know the reason
Of what lies behind that smile
Take a seat, enjoy the journey
Just relax, I'll lead you through
Through the Human zoo
Through the Human zoo

Well, I hear em cry in the daylight
I hear 'em scream after dark
A real life jungle atmosphere
Watch 'em tear each other apart

Cause this is where they're living
Same as where they'll die
Stop it now or never
Can someone draw the line

Do we ever know the reason
Of what lies behind that smile
Take a seat, enjoy the journey
Just relax, I'll lead you through
Through the human zoo
Through the human zoo
Through the human zoo
Through the human zoo

. . .


What I like
Is to take the highest road that never ends
To hold the moment right here in my hands
Yeah, that's what I like
To feel alive

What I like
Is to know your body's lying next to mine
To see you smile without a reason why
Yeah, that's what I like, that's what I like

It's something that will never end
Soul to soul
Everything here is all under control
Eye to eye
Can you see it
Can you feel it
What I like

What I like
is to take you on a journey round the sun
I wonder if you'd like to come along
Yeah, well may be tonight, may be tonight

It's something that will never end
Soul to soul
Every thing here is all under control
Eye to eye
Can you see it
Can you feel it
What I like

It's something that will never end
Soul to soul
Every thing here is all under control
Eye to eye
Let me show you
All I've told you, yeah
Soul to soul
Everything here is all under control
Eye to eye
Can you see it
Can you feel it
What I like

. . .


Have a little faith in me
There's no words for what I feel
You'll need a little time to see
Let me prove my love is real

Have a little faith in me
And I'll give it back to you
If I could only make you see
Then every dream would still come true

No matter who's to fight
We gotta hold on tight
I know, there's an answer to my prayer
Gotta feeling like I've never had before

And my love for you can open any door
Have a little faith

I could help you find your way
Cause I know you're not that strong
It isn't just a game we play
Oh, you'll believe before too long

I'll show ya how to love
And to rise above
I'll be every answer to your prayer
If you feel it like you've never felt before

Then all at once you can open any door
Have a little faith

Have a little faith in me
And I'll give it back to you
You'll need a little time to see
We can make the dream come true

No matter who's to fight
We gotta hold on tight
I know, there's an answer to my prayer

Gotta feeling like I've never had before
You know my love for you can open any door
Have a little faith

. . .


Hello, hello, hello
Is there anybody listening in the crowd ?
Don't think twice
Ain't gonna waste no more time

The clock's running
And I see the end of the line
It's calling
So watch me leave em all behind

You can turn me loose, you can call my name
I'll keep climbing higher
I will touch the sky, as the eagle flies
On my way to be there
Right on top of the world

Hello, hello, hello
Now I'm rolling like a freight train down the track
Don't look back,
Don't try to get in my way

Oh I'm coming
Eell I've got my eye on the flame
And I'm running
'Cause I was born to play the game

You can turn me loose, you can call my name
I'll keep climbing higher
I will touch the sky, as the eagle flies
On my way to be there
Right on top of the world, oh

It's not an illusion
This is my one desire
There's no confusion
Well I can set the world on fire

You can turn me loose, you can call my name
I'll keep climbing higher
I will touch the sky, as the eagle flies
On my way to be there
Right on top of the world, oh
I'm on fire
On my way to be there
Right on top of the world

. . .


Hard times, shadow of a street light
Dark eyes, stealing to survive
God knows, with a pocket full of hope she goes

Young life, closing all around her,
She'll be twelve, somewhere round June
No chance, for a child growing up too soon

And she never felt love from someone
Never had love before
Just another cry of desperation
That no one stands up for

Janie's not alone
She's not the only one who lives a life in misery
Janie's not alone
All she can do is run, that seems to be her destiny

No mother, no father, she calls for angels, but the angels cry
No chance, I guess that she was born to loose

And she never felt love from someone
Never had love before
Can we ever stop the tears from falling,
So she won't cry no more

Janie's not alone
She's not the only one who lives a life in misery
Janie's on her own
All she can do is run, that seems to be her destiny

And she never felt love from someone
Oh never had love before
Just another cry of desperation
That no one stands up for

Janie's not alone
She's not the only one who lives a life in misery
Janie's not alone
All she can do is run, that seems to be her destiny
Janie's not alone
But she keeps holding' on, it's not how it was meant to be
Janie's on her own
All she can do is run, that seems to be her destiny

Janie's not alone
Janie's not alone

. . .


Been almost a thousand years, since I started killing time
Every day reminds me how I feel
Couldn't face the ending
So I left it undefined
I was wrong, I was wrong

Now there's nothing I can do
Cause still I belong to you

Took a train to nowhere, now I start the long road back
Look for signs but no real place to go
I'll find someone to take me where
You're completely out of view
Lay it down, lay it down

I try to be strong, but still I belong to you
If we had the chance to take it
Could we find the way to make things right
Did I mean that much to you, who-oh

Gotta face the dream is over
That's just the way the story goes
And I can't believe it's true
That still I belong.. still I belong to you

Been almost a thousand years
Since I started killing time
In and out of love, I thought was real
I was wrong, I was wrong

Now there's so much more
That I could give to you

If we had the chance to take it
Could we find the way to make things right
Did I mean that much to you, Who-oh
Gotta face the dream is over
That's just the way the story goes
But I can't believe it's true
That still I belong, still I belong to you
To you.. I try to be strong
But still I belong

. . .


I can't believe it gets so hard
And every single day that we're apart, yeah
I loose control,
You know that's true

Say you do, say you will
To make you stay, I'm thinking I would kill, yeah
So take a look.
And see what you've done

You're one in a million
One in a million miles away
Just wanna be near you
Wanna be near you now
Near you night and day, oh yeah

Now I can't shake it loose
And I can't break the chain
Read my mind, then you would feel the pain, yeah
Won't you come on home, and set me free

Say you will, say you do
Tried a thousand ways just to get to you, oh
And one of these days
I'll turn around, an' you'll be there

You're one in a million
One in a million miles away
Just wanna be near you
Wanna be near you now
Near you night and day

Another chance is all I need [Miles Away]
Gotta stop my heart from bleeding [Miles Away]
Well I got one more card to play [Miles Away]
I'll lay it down to make you stay

You're one in a million
One in a million, one in a million miles away
Just wanna be near you, wanna be near you night and day
One in a million, one in a million miles away
Just wanna be near you, wanna be near you now
Near you night and day, yeah
One in a million

. . .


Since you've been gone there's a darkness
Nowhere a light to be found
The clock on the wall's holding back the time
It's clear that I'm just going down

You and I, were made for one another
And I believed that dream, for too long

All that you left was a letter
I can't get it out of my mind
No more laughter, no more sun
Alone at the scene of the crime

Now here I am, searching for forgiveness, yeah
But nothing seems to matter anymore

There's no tomorrow, only fire in the rain
You say you're sorry, but only memories remain
You can't tell me there's a reason
Why I should go through all this pain
And once again, once again
I call your name

Love was the wrong destination
And I can't find healing touch
But I won't forsake, I won't give up,
Guess I still need you too much

So here we are, strangers to each other
When once we held the whole world in our hands

There's no tomorrow, only fire in the rain
You say you're sorry, but only memories remain
You can't tell me there's a reason
Why I should go through all this pain
And once again, once again
I call your name

You say in this life, no one's wrong, and nobody's right
You say that you need to be free
And that's what is killing me

There's no tomorrow, only fire in the rain
You say you're sorry, but only memories remain
There's no tomorrow, am I the only one to blame
You can't tell me there's a reason
Why I should go through all this pain
And once again, once again
I call your name

What am I supposed to do ?
Tell me

. . .


Time to call another girl in town
Time to take all of your pictures down
It's time to let them know, I'm still around

Wish I had the words to say it right,
The show is over, let's just say goodnight
And all the feelings that were locked inside
Are free

Cause it's the
First time in a long time, I'm here on my own
And I'm finding reasons, to carry on strong
There's no easy way to leave it all behind
Cause it's the
First time in a long time
I'll be all right

I might just take a ride on the open sea
A million miles from where I used to be
With every step I take, I do believe.. oh

I see my whole world from the inside out
One more reason not to cry out loud
A new beginning and I'll find my way somehow

Cause it's the
First time in a long time, I'm here on my own
And I'm finding reasons, to carry on strong
There's no easy way to leave it all behind
Cause it's the
First time in a long time
I'll be all right

I could tell you my story
'bout the hell I've been through, oh yeah
I've been praying for the answers
And all that really matters
Is coming out of the blue

Cause it's the
First time in a long time, I'm here on my own
And I'm finding reasons, to carry on strong
There's no easy way to leave it all behind
Cause it's the
First time in a long time
It's the, first time in a long time
It's the, first time in a long time
But I'll be all right,
I'll be all right

Time to call another girl in town..

. . .


I've been lost and found, run out of grace
Felt the city's cold embrace
And I learned the hard way
How it feels to be lonely

I've seen perfect skies, turn into grey
Had my dreams all washed away
And I realized
What I wanted was already mine

I'm back where I belong
Been a long time gone, now it feels like home, yeah
You are the one
And none of us is meant to be lonely
Lonely

It is strange sometimes, you're unaware
You can't break out, they hold you there
Trying to make you believe
You're somebody else

Always tried to keep my head up high
And memories will never die
I won't lie to myself,
So here I am

I'm back to.. where I belong
Been a long time gone, now it feels like home, yeah
You are the one
And none of us is meant to be lonely

I knew someday, that I would prove that they were wrong
You'd see me running back to you, back to you

I was lonely

Oh I'm back to where I belong
Been a long time gone, now it feels like home, yeah
You are the one
And none of us is meant to be lonely
This is
Where I belong
You're my everything, one and only dream, yeah
You are the one
Cuz none of us is meant to be lonely, lonely, lonely
lonely

. . .


Hey hey hey
I don't believe any word you say
There must be somebody else today
To call on the line

My my my
How many times did you make me cry
You must have taken me for a fool
But that was a lie

Now another chance to say maybe
D'ya think I'm really that crazy
Do I need to tell you why, why, why
I'm thinking it's a

Long way down
Every time I turn around you're headed for a
Long way down

Time, time, time
For you to learn to read the signs
You better stick to your own kinds
Get outta my way

Go, go, go
I've never met anyone so cold
I see you walking along the edge
Falling into the hole

Now an easy thing to discover
No way you're pulling me under
You're head is on the wire, wire, wire
It's gonna be a

Long way down
Every time I turn around you're headed for a
Long way down

. . .


In my thoughts, you're there as ever
In my dreams, we stay together
See your face in every place I go

And here I stand, the great pretender
Borrowed times, I do remember
I need you more than you will ever know

I do complain
To live without your love's to live In vain
What can I do to make you love me
What can I say to make you smile
Won't you gimme that sign I'm waiting after
Don't turn away don't turn away
How will I know this is the right time
How will I feel this is the right place
I'm walking on fire forever, after
So what do ya say what do ya say
Tell me what do ya say

I'll be the one for you to lean on
Fill your mind with things to dream on
One step away to catch you when you fall

You and I, today, tomorrow
Trust your heart and what will follow
Feel the love I'm dying to give to you

I do complain
To live without your love's to live in vain
What can I do to make you love me
What can I say to make you smile
Won't you gimme that sign I'm waiting after
Don't turn away don't turn away
How will I know this is the right time
How will I feel this is the right place
I'm walking on fire forever, after
So what do ya say what do ya say
Tell me what do ya say

What will it take to make things right
What can I do to change your mind
Gotta find a way to get to you

. . .


Same old story, same old game
You hold the power and I
I keep the pain
Yeah I keep the pain
You say wrong when I say right
Saying black when you should say white
Believe me, this fight is all insane
Every time you're in need
You run the way back to me
And the smile on your face
Is an every days mystery
I can't tell you how I feel
What's illusion, what is real
But tonight I won't give up
The role of pretender
I'll give no mercy, not this time
You won't break this heart of mine
'cause' tonight I won't give up,
I'll never surrender
I need a break, I'm outta here
Time has come to make things clear
Believe me, that's only wasting time
And if I'm wrong so tell me please
I'll go down right on my knees
Believe me, baby baby, believe me
