1. I'M A BELIEVER

Oh, go

Girl, it's been awhile,
You've lost your pretty smile, what happened?
Was it something that they said
That's playing with your head
What happened when you're standing in the spotlight?
Woman, some people try an' take a shot
Well it's only jealousy, only jealousy,
Oh, they can't see our love

But one thing you can be sure of
You know that I'm a believer, in you an' me
You know that I'm a believer, oh it's true
And no matter what you do, girl, I believe in you I believe

Oh, it's never what you hear,
It's only what you feel that matters
If you're gonna stand alone,
You can't keep climbing social ladders
When it comes down to basics
And we're lookin' at it one on one
It don't matter what they say, matter what they say
About us now, ah, can't hurt us now

But one thing you can be sure of
You know that I'm a believer, in you, I believe
You know that I'm a believer, oh it's true
And no matter what you do, girl, I believe

The only way to win child, is never play the game of love
But I'll be there to catch you even if you should ever fall

But one thing you can be sure of
You know that I'm a believer, in you, in me
You know that I'm a believer, girl it's true
And no matter what you do
You know I'm a believer, in you, in love

You know that I'm a believer, oh, it's true
And no matter what you do, girl
I believe in you, oh, in me, oh, in love
You know that I'm a believer, oh it's true
And no matter what you do, girl, I believe


2. INNOCENT DAYS

Visions, our love is a series of visions
A taste on my lips, a whispering word in your ear
Oh passion, we're children just playing with pa*sion
Losing our grip, falling asleep at the wheel

Still we hold on to the bitter end
Thinking we can never lose
Baby it's a cold night
And the winds of change are blowing

And these are the innocent days
Standing on the rocks, waiting for the tidal waves
Dreaming of love, living inside the lands
And these are the innocent days
I know we're the last of the runaways
Never return, till love takes us home

Lover, we're drowning our doubts in each other
Closing our eyes, we bury the truth in the sand
I cannot take it 'cos when we don't feel it, we fake it
Oh someday these nights come back to haunt us again

Oh we lie here at the water's edge
Wishing we could float away
'Cos it's too late to turn back
When the only bridge is burning

And these are the innocent days
Standing on the rocks, waiting for the tidal waves
Dreaming of love but living inside the lands
Just tell me these are the innocent days
I know we're the last of the runaways
Never return till love takes us home

Still we hold on to the bitter end
Thinking we can never lose
Baby it's a cold night
And the winds of change are blowing
Oh they're blowing, they're cryin', they're cryin'

And these are the innocent days
Standing on the rocks, waiting for the tidal waves
Dreaming of love, living inside the lands
Just tell me these are the innocent days
I know we're the last of the runaways
We'll never return till love takes us home
These are the innocent days


3. I CAN'T GET CLOSE ENOUGH

Lying in the shade of the half light,
Buzzin' in the back of my head
I'm lookin' at you, I can't believe just how good it gets
There's a cold wind rushin' through the window,
Can't even touch your heat
Soul to soul, no control, breathin' in your heartbeat

And only passioned fools are looking for spiritual bruises
You're on the way to stone and now as I lie here with you

I can't get close enough no matter what I do
I'm never close enough, I need more and more of you
Close enough, well I think I'm losing my mind
I'm deep inside your love but I still ain't close enough
Ohh, close enough

I can hear the angels' voices tryin' to whisper my name
Out of the dark and into the light, mission of these shames
I don't wanna wait another lifetime
'Til this one happens again
What you've done is taken me from the prison that I live in

You're all I ever need, I live in the light of your flame
This fire's consuming me here as I call out your name

I can't get close enough no matter what I do
I'm never close enough, I need more and more of you
Close enough, well I think I'm losing my mind
I'm deep inside your love but I still ain't close enough
Ohh, close enough

And only pa*sioned fools are looking for spiritual bruises
You're on the way to stone and now as I lie here with you

I can't get close enough no matter what I do
I'm never close enough, I want more and more of you
Close enough, well I think I'm losing my mind
I'm deep inside your love but I still ain't close enough
Ohh, ohh, ohh, ohh


4. I'LL SEE YOU IN MY DREAMS

Gone, the voice that used to fill the room is all but gone
An echo of a perfect love that ended wrong
Girl, we tried so hard when love was on our side
And yesterday will always be the reason why
You keep comin', you keep comin' back,
You keep comin' back for more

I'll see you in my dreams
There we'll be safe tonight
From the lonely days of memories
I'll see you in my dreams

Time, time will never be a friend of mine again
It tries to make your memory fade but I won't let it end
Let the sun go down, so I can drift away
Let me close my eyes and live another day
You keep comin', you keep comin' back,
You keep comin' back for more

I'll see you in my dreams
There we'll be safe tonight
From the lonely days of memories
I'll see you in my dreams

The truth, oh it's there for you to see
Sometimes it's painful to be on your own, on your own

I'll see you in my dreams
There we'll be safe tonight
From the lonely days of memories
And I'll see you in my dreams

Back in my arms again
And no matter what tomorrow brings
I'll see you in my dreams


5. NO WAY OUT

Late, late last night, I saw a face that touched my soul
I knew that the time was right,
So I moved on in and said hello
First we started talking, then we started walking
She said: "I live 'long the next bent,
Have you met my boyfriend?
He'll be waiting up for you"

And there's no way out, girl,
I've got my back against the wall
Oh there's no way out,
I don't get no second chance at all
And there's no way out
I said: "hey, what's all this?
I don't get off on playing games"
She smiled and she blew me a kiss,
I saw my night go up in flames
He turned on the corner, night was getting warmer
Oh no, then I saw him coming, so I started running
This is like some crazy dream

Late, late last night, I saw a face that broke my heart
I knew the time was right, oh baby, but
I turned around and played it smart
No way out, girl, I've got my back against the wall
Oh there's no way out, I don't get no second chance at all

Yes there's no way out


6. SHAKE ME UP

Midnight, my doorbell rings
You're standing in the cold with a few of your things,
And you're crying
I know words for talking slow
You don't have to tell me, I don't wanna know
When times get tough, you always run right back to me
But I don't care, if it makes you feel better
'Cos you shake me up, break me up
When you're around, I can't get enough
Oh you shake me up, break me up
Girl, you tear me apart
Yeah yeah yeah ya shake me up
The next day, the frontdoor slams
You're standing in the street with another man,
And you're laughing
You move close, you shake his hand
You smile at me like I understand, oh
In your eyes there is a promise you'll be back
And that's all I need to make me feel better
'Cos you shake me up, break me up
When you're around, I can't get enough
Oh you shake me up, break me up
Girl, you tear me apart
Shake me up, break me up
When you're around, I can't get enough
Oh you shake me up, break me up
Girl, you tear me apart
Yeah yeah yeah ya shake me up
Why don't you make up your mind?
You better stop wastin' my time

At night, my doorbell rings
You're standing in the cold with all of your things,
And you're smiling
You walk in and say hello
You don't have to tell me, 'cos I already know
No more tears, you won't be standing in the cold
You'll be back with me, and it'll be better, oh better
'Cos you shake me up, break me up, when you're around,
I can't get enough
C'mon shake me up, break me up
Shake me up, break me up - when you're around,
I can't get enough
Oh you shake me up, break me up
Girl, you tear me apart
Shake me up, break me up


7. IT TAKES TWO

Oh, here I am, looking back again
At the road that led to you
Oh, the time is alright, tryin' to save myself
From looking out at you

I walked alone, while you were waiting
But somehow you saw through me
And now I'm standing at your door
You're the only one I need

It takes two, two hearts that beat together
To make it feel like one
Body and soul surrender, when love has just begun
It takes two, it takes two

I've been blinded by this fear inside
That love is just a game
You distract yourself with someone else
And both havin' traveled in pain

Bow now, I see the road I've taken
Will lead me to nothing more
Than empty rooms without your love
Girl, I'm standing at your door

It takes two, two hearts that beat together
To make it feel like one
Body and soul surrender, when love has just begun
It takes two, it takes two, oh

I walked alone while you were waiting
I knew where I'm wanting to be
So now, I'm standing at your door
You're the only one I need

It takes two, two hearts that beat together
To make it feel like one
Oh, one life with you, one life with you, oh

It takes two, two hearts that beat together
To make it feel like one
Body and soul surrender, when love has just begun
It takes two, it takes two


8. STRANGER TO ME

The night was long, the silence deep
Too many thoughts in my head as I watch your easy sleep
Your body moved, your breath came slow
I saw a face that I loved, but a girl I did not know
Tell me, someone please tell me,
It's making you act so strange
Too good, our love has been too good,
How did you ever change?

'Cos all I want is you, to give me the love,
Give me the love that I once knew
I'll do what you want me to do
'Cos all I want is you, but you're a stranger to me
I look at you, you turn away
Too many thoughts in my head, but I don't know what to say
Of course in times, I've tried and tried
To get next to you, but you keep me locked outside
Come back, come back babe, an' tell me what's on your mind
Too late, never say it's too late, girl,
I've always got the time

Let go, you know I'll never let go,
I'll bring you back inside
No more, I can't take no more, I'm living on the outside
'Cos all I want is you, to give me the love,
Give me the love that I once knew
I'll do what you want me to do,
'Cos all I want is you, you, you


9. HOLD BACK THE NIGHT

I've been looking for an answer in the sky
Can you hear me? 'Cos I need a reason why
I think I'm in trouble with my heart out on my sleeve
So I'm calling 'cos I need her as I live and breathe
Don't let the sun go down 'cos tomorrow she'll be gone

Give me one more day and I'll make her stay
Hold back the night
If you're really there and you hear my prayer
Hold back the night
Hold back the night, oh the night

Every minute, it gets closer to goodbye
Can't you give me oh just a few more hours
To change her mind
Don't let tomorrow in 'cos I just can't face it alone

Give me one more day and I'll make her stay
Hold back the night
If you're really there and you hear my prayer
Hold back the night

I watch the light fading to black
I'm counting on you to build me a bridge so
I can bring her back
Don't let the sun go down 'cos tomorrow she will be gone

Give me one more day and I'll make her stay
Hold back the night
If you're really there and you hear my prayer
Hold back the night

One more day, make her stay
Hold back the night
If you're really there and you hear my prayer
Hold back the night


10. LOVE WELCOME HOME

I, I know I'm just a man, one grain of sand
I know, I know that she's just a girl, just one in the world
But I swear when I held her tonight,
We touched the sky, oh oh
I could not hold back the tears from my eyes, oh

Love welcome home, I've been so alone
Dying inside 'cos I'm so lost without you
Love welcome home, this heart of mine nearly turned to stone
Nearly turned to stone

Now I live right here indoor, oh, night by night
Oh girl what you've done changes everything,
What's right is right
When I'm lying next to you, I can see so perfectly, oh, oh
It took so long but now you're here with me, oh

Love welcome home, I've been so alone
Dying inside 'cos I'm so lost without you
Love welcome home, this heart of mine nearly turned to stone
Ohh, nearly turned to stone

They say love is a miracle, oh baby
They must be right 'cos I can see a miracle inside
Oh inside your eyes tonight

Love welcome home, I've been so alone
Dying inside 'cos I'm so lost without you
Love welcome home,
This heart of mine nearly turned to stone, oh
Oh, love welcome home,
This heart of mine nearly turned to stone, oh


11. THE BIG PITCH

Hey little babe, can I talk to you?
I can change your life, make it feel brand new
Shape your body, to give you back your youth, ooh it's true
But there's just one thing, it's gonna cost you, yeah you

Same old story, same old song, just a fool and his money
Sugar parties don't last long, in chasin' that dream
Same old story, same old song, well it ain't very funny
Oh but still you're blind,
While you're dreaming your life away
Hey little boy, are you lonely at all?
There's a million girls want you to call
They can cover all your wildest fantasies, oh with ease
But there's just one thing, it's gonna cost you, yeah you
All in a day

Hey big sucker, can I talk to you?
This is no big pitch, every warp is true
I can sell you everything you need, make you bleed
Think it over, it's gonna cost you, yeah you, oh you
Away
