Lost in the Milky Way
Smile at the empty sky and wait for
The moment a million chances
They all collide
I'll be the guiding light
Swim to me through stars that
Shine down
And call to the sleeping world
As they fall to Earth

So heres your life (heres your life)
We'll find a way
We're sailing blind
We're certain, nothing's certain

I don't mind
I get the the feeling
you'll be fine
I still believe
That in this world
We've got to find the time
For the life of Riley

Form cradles and sleepless nights
You breathe in life forever
And stare at the world from
Deep under eiderdown

So here's your life (heres your life)
We'll find a way
We're sailing blind
We're certain, nothing's certain

I don't mind
I get the the feeling
you'll be fine
I still believe
That in this world
We've got to find the time
For the first time
I don't mind
I get the the feeling
you'll be fine
I still believe
That in this world
We've got to find the time
For the life of Riley

All this worlds is a crazy ride
Just take your seat and hold on tight

So here's your life (heres your life)
We'll find a way
We're sailing blind
We're certain, nothing's certain

I don't mind
I get the the feeling
you'll be fine
I still believe
That in this world
We've got to find the time
For the first time
I don't mind
I get the the feeling
you'll be fine
I still believe
That in this world
We've got to find the time
For the life of Riley.

I'm flying high on something beautiful and aimless,
it's got a name but I prefer to call it nameless.
It comes and goes leaves me on a bed of splinters,
feels like I'm living in a town closed down for winter.

The taste of Love,
the more you get, the more you want,
and all because,
the only reason is just because.
It all makes Sense,
when you're near
it all makes Sense.

I'm standing high on tiptoes looking over fences,
waiting for somebody like you to kiss me Senseless.
I've had a bellyfull of faces drawn in sadness,
I want to jump deep into tides of loving madness.


. . .


Deep in a world of dreams
Clouds of sleep far from prying eyes
Stones fill my mind
Running wild in the quiet eyes

I can't see so show me why we need
To waste our time on thieves
Who steal our lives-lest we mind

"If the sun fell out of the sky
It wouldn't be a day too soon
If the bombs start to fly
My life is in the hands of fools"

Now tempers climb
You can't deny all the voices trying
Make them understand
Change your plans it's in your hands

All my words fell on stoney ground
There's always lies,alibis
And reasons why,wrongs not rights

. . .


(Frenzy) start it up
(Frenzy) start it up

(Frenzy)
Now, we're in a frenzy

A rocket ship could take us high
To Hell and back with little white lies
Twist and shout, step by step
You might forgive, but you can't forget

(Frenzy)
(Frenzy) start it up

(Frenzy)
Now, we're, now, we're in a frenzy

You don't know what you've started
(Frenzy)
Now, we're in a frenzy
Now, we're in a frenzy
We're in a frenzy
(Frenzy) start it up
(Frenzy) start it up
Frenzy

. . .



Just give me more than I could ever wish for
Give me more than I could ever hope to take
in one day, OK
There's always someone who can make me shiver
There's always someone who can melt the feel of ice
On my spine, in the night

Can't control
Control the flame
But who the hell'd want to calm this fever
Can't control
Control desire
But who the hell'd want to stop it now

I hear the thunder and my mind can't reason
Going under as it dances on my spine
Hold me tight, hold me tight
There must be someone who could kill this fever
But now and then I feel this fever rise and rise
Burning bright in the night

Night and day the heat is on
Fever burns
Something strange is going on
And it makes me burn and burn


. . .



What can I say?
She's walking away
From what we've seen
What can I do?
Still loving you
It's all a dream

How can we hang on to a dream?
How can it really be the way it's seen?

What can I do?
She is saying we're through
Without a word
What can I try?
I still can't see why
She says what she does

How can we hang on to a dream?
How can it really be the way it's seen?

What can I say?
She's walking away
From what we've seen
What can I do?
Still loving you
It's all a dream

How can we hang on to a dream?
How can it really be the way it's seen?
How can we hang on to a dream?

Persuasion

[No lyrics]

. . .


Call out the instigator
Because there's something in the air
We've got to get together sooner or later
Because the revolution's here

And you know it's right
And you know that it's right
We have got to get it together
We have got to get it together now

Run through the fields and houses
Because there's something in the air
We've got to get together sooner or later
Because the revolution's here

And you know it's right
And you know that it's right
We have got to get it together
We have got to get it together now

Call out the instigator
Because there's something in the air
We've got to get together sooner or later
Because the revolution's here

And you know it's right
And you know that it's right
We have got to get it together
We have got to get it together now

. . .



I'm pushed and pulled and shunted,
man-handled and man-hunted,
by those faceless names.

You've got nine lives,
I've got eight,
I just can't wait
to lock the door,
and throw the keys away.

I'll call as soon as it's all over,
Let's wait until the World is sober.

The World is wide,
Manhattan chase,
misguided missiles spin in space,
[I] feel like a sundial in the shade,
where flowers fade...

I feel like a poor relation,
passing through an empty station,
on this empty track.

I'm half poverty,
half oysters,
no morals,
tarnished laurels,
going nowhere fast.

You don't get smoke without a fire,
next time I'll vote for Billy Liar.

I hate liars,
I hate cheats,
waving flags and saving nations,
Goodbye love, Goodbye Peace,
I hate war,
it ruins conversation.


. . .



Angels rub their eyes,
a frown on their faces.
The future's floating by,
but I'm too tired to face it.

Televisions smile,
and fools never doubt it.
Whispers multiply,
they all want to shout it.

Build a ladder to the stars,
the angles dry their eyes,
marooned in the sky tonight.

You can turn your world to stone,
build a wall till you're on your own.
You can close the window tight,
but you can't keep out the night.

That in this world
We've got to find the time
For the life of Riley.
