Lillian Axe Album

An eye for an eye, a heart for a heart
That's the way that we play
Up in the clouds, where angels fly
You take my breath away.

Bridge 1:
Your love is my heaven
Now I'm going that way, hey, hey
And when I get there
You know I'm gonna stay, stay, stay

Chorus:
You're the Dream of a Lifetime
Whoa, Yeah
You're the Dream of a Lifetime
Yes, you are

Caught up in the roles that we play
It's a foolish game
There's nothing we can't do or be
If we want it the same

Bridge 2:
I've had all my chances
To lock you away, hey, hey
Now when I find ya,
You know I'm gonna stay, stay, stay

Chorus

You know I'm dreaming of you

Solo
Bridge 2
Chorus
(Repeat)

You're taking our words
You're stealing our words

To twist the facts all upside down
It's time you hear from me, yeah
CHORUS:
You'll twist and turn - inside out
Fear for your integrity
You can't hear
We're not marionettes

Trying to take our thoughts away, away
Cause we're all here to stay, yeah
CHORUS
Inside out, inside out
To twist the facts around, around, around
It's time you hear from me
We're gonna turn you - inside out
It ain't like it sounds - inside out

You'll twist and turn - inside out
I know I'm right and you are wrong
Inside out (repeat)

One winter night, hear the call
Look through her burning eyes
He saw her face, a distorted blur
Like a dream that never lies

Fade away to black
(Never) Never coming back
(She's a) Shadow in his mind
(She's a) Love he'll never find
Haunting scenes causing you pain
Making you realize
Climbing the walls, going insane
Never to see her eyes

CHORUS:
She's a vision in the night
She's a diamond in the firelight of love
She's a vision in the night
She's a memory of a clouded mind
She's a vision of love

One winter night, she held his hand
Making him lose his mind
He turned around, nowhere to be found
He knew he'd never find her

CHORUS
CHORUS

Light the fire of love tonight
You know I've always had you in my sights
But I finally have the chance to love you
So picture perfect in the light of the stars
Played so close but I want so far
Got struck by the poison of Cupid's arrow

CHORUS:
But tomorrow comes the sorrow
Like a story book
It only took one look
'cause last night it seemed
Like things were picture perfect

Want your sudden love every night
I dreamed you'd be, got to love you right
But I find it so hard to even approach you
As the stars find your lovely smile
Your fangs like devil were sharply filed
Got to question about your reputation

CHORUS

No longer love you like the way I did
I'll never be a fool like that again
It only took one night
To prove your precious point
Did you think that we could just be friends

CHORUS

Yeah, yeah, yeah, picture perfect
Hey, hey, hey, picture perfect
Last night it seemed
Like things were picture perfect

A long time ago
Like a fool I thought I could love you
The more that I tried
The more that you lied, I believed in you

You say you can get
Any man that you want
But keeping one's a different story

CHORUS 1
The more that you get
The more that you want
The more that you get
The more that you want
And I'm the one to give you some

You break my heart
Just feed on the tears that I'm crying
When we make love
It's all we can do, but you're lying

Oh yeah, you say you can get
Any man that you want
But holding on's a different story

CHORUS 2
The more that you get
The more that you want
The more that you get
The more that you take
It's time that I steal your heart away

CHORUS 1

The more that you get
The more that you want
The more that you get

The more that you get
The more that you take
The more that you want

Down and out, like a fox on the run
My baby's gone, now I'm the lonely one
On top of that, it looks like I'm going bald

My friends are two faced, and my money's gone
I got a ticket when my car broke down
A rainy day, now, what else could go wrong?

Bridge 1:
Now who's the judge?
What's my crime?
Ain't no sentence, but I'm still doing time.

Chorus:
'cause Misery
Misery Loves Company
'cause Misery, Misery
Misery Loves Company

Cold and hungry like a dog in the street
I get a raw deal, everyone I meet
All I want is some lovin' and a little respect, that's all

The poor get nothing while the rich get fat
Start living good, the I.R.S. takes that
I kinda wonder if there's really any good at all, at all

Bridge 2:
So what's it like
To have a smile?
I'd like to have one, but it's not my style

Chorus
Solo

Bridge 1
Chorus
(Repeat)

Nobody knows when there's clouds in the skies
When there are tears in your eyes
Nobody knows when you're hurting so bad
So what if they had?

Far away, where the hills turn to plains
I sit and I wonder where you are
I dream at night of the memories that we share
I feel your touch, I see your stare

Chorus:
Nobody knows when you're down and out
Nobody cares what it's all about
When it comes to you, babe
You know I'll always be there
It just seems,
Nobody knows when you're down and out

Silent words, a whispered song
Will you still love me when I'm gone?
Now, nobody knows what really matters
Only fools who don't belong

Chorus
…In my dreams, it never seems that
Nobody knows

Solo

Chorus

The hammer falls under the neon skies
The city lights reflecting in my eyes

Roll the dice, a turn of the wheel
It's my turn to call
If it weren't for hard luck
I'd have no luck at all

Chorus:
Hard luck's got a hold on me
I bet against the odds
Hard luck's comin' down on me
It's in the fall of the cards
Hard luck

The night's my savior, she keeps me in the dark
A bad shot, it seems I've missed the mark

Like salt in my wounds
It burns me up inside
Nowhere to run to now
Nowhere to hide

Chorus
Solo
Chorus
(Repeat)

Somewhere in my mind
Is the fear of growing old
Deep inside my heart
The warmth has turned to cold
My tired eyes, Slipping away
Tired life

Chorus:
Waiting in the Dark
To take his shot at me
Father Time's a cruel man
Will I resurrect
Or will I even know
Sorrow is the master plan

Lie in bed at night
Will there be another day
Body aches in pain
Things they don't seem quite the same

Nobody cares, No one to share
Tired life

Solo
Chorus
Repeat

Too late - for crawling on your knees
Too late - too late to beg me please
Forget the things you said to me
No way - to ever change my mind
No way - no way to find the time
To change the feelings we once shared

Now I'm laughing in your face
I'm laughing, I'm laughing in your face

Too bad - I found my pot of gold
Too bad - too bad you're getting much too old
To play your silly games with me
Look now - at who believes in who
See how - the tables turned on you
Let's see who's smiling now

Now I'm laughing in your face
I'm laughing, I'm laughing in your face

And now I'm on the rebound
And I've found my own space
You're feeling rotten and forgotten
While I'm laughing in your face

And now I'm on the rebound
And I've found my own space
You're feeling rotten and forgotten
While I'm laughing in your face

In your face
I'm laughing, I'm laughing in your face
I'm laughing, I'm laughing
I'm laughing, I'm laughing in your face
Laughing in your face
