ELECTION DAY
Wild kind of look to the day Opening eyes impale neon flickers She moves, she turning away The city’s her slave he’s cheating his mistress She’s moody and gray, she’s mean and she’s restless So restless (so restless indeed) All over you as they say Rumors or rivals yell at the strike force Hi guys, by the way Are you aware you’re being illegal It’s making your savior Behaviour look evil ‘scuse my timing but say How you’d fit in with this flimflam and Judy Maximum big surprise Your smile is something new I pull my shirt off and pray I’m sacred and bound to suffer the heat wave Pull my shirt off and pray We’re coming up on re-election day Stretching my luck down the way To your invitation stretching my body Use your intuitive play ‘cause maybe we have more playtime than money Maximum big surprise She knows something new I pull my shirt off and pray I’m saving myself to suffer the heat wave Pull my shirt off and pray We’re coming up on re-election day By roads and back ways, a lover’s chance downwind Cut open murmurs and sounds be calm hands on skin Carry on further entangled strands…all sing Time, saving some time to slip away…we can dance Oh, shouldn’t be asking wild and scheming Could be my election day Maximum big surprise You know something new I pull my shirt off and pray I’m sacred and bound to suffer the heat wave Pull my shirt off and pray We’re coming up on re-election day Re-election day
KEEP ME IN THE DARK
When the evening sunlight fingers stretch across the floor Cover up your eyes with feathers, softly close the door
Take me in your heavy lips, take me where the shadows slide I’m in with your blindfold secrets cutting fast and lose The lacey intrigue of this weekend should not be abused You can take me where you want, but could you take me all the time Away, yeah I’ll wait a little longer don’t go too far I wouldn’t lie, I wouldn’t like you keeping me in the dark Tender is the truce I’m tasting watching you dictate Heavy nights of sleepless wasting are things I can’t escape We could wave the world good-bye, too all the boys cheerio Away, yeah I’ll wait a little longer don’t go too far I wouldn’t lie, I wouldn’t like you keeping me in the dark Away, yeah I’ll wait a little longer don’t go too far I wouldn’t lie, I wouldn’t like you keeping me in the dark Help me now I’m slipping deeper, tell me what to say When without words you pull me closer each time you turn away Something inside you cries, but is it something I’ll never find Away, yeah I’ll wait a little longer don’t go too far I wouldn’t lie, I wouldn’t like you keeping me in the dark Away, yeah I'll wait a little longer before we go too far I wouldn’t lie, I wouldn’t like to think you were keeping me in the dark
GOODBYE IS FOREVER
Sometimes you have no choice Sometimes you've got no voice to say Say if you will the words Say if your world is so gray But we can decide it They’ll be no tears no tragedy Sure I wouldn’t break and cry if you walk away Believe me Hey, goodbye Goodbye is forever Hey, forever Goodbye is forever and ever Sometimes it makes no sense This side of cruel coincidence Caught up in our own barbed wire To set us free Believe this Hey, goodbye Goodbye is forever Hey, forever Goodbye is forever and ever Hey, goodbye Goodbye is forever Hey, forever Goodbye is forever and ever Goodbye Goodbye is forever Hey, forever Goodbye is forever and ever Hey, goodbye
THE FLAME
I could feel the breeze blowing change Blowing through my doorway Warm and restless just as you walked by
Inside of Smokey halls A circle drawn and voices call To raise some magic wind in my heart Strange coincidence each time you look my way This sinking feeling scares me No my weakness call it déjà vu Never put my trust in fate Surprises do arrive so late Why should I be surprised by you Straight to the heart Straight for this precious shining How do you dare step into my flame One from the heart One for this precious shining How can you steal my flame? Sometimes cards are drawn And the tables turn the waiting game is over Take this dealer’s hand and steal away the dawn Never give me any chance To wander back form this innocence Don’t you make any chances at all Straight to the heart Straight for this precious shining How do you dare step into my flame One from the heart One for this precious shining How can you steal my flame? Straight to the heart Straight for this precious shining How do you dare step into my flame Straight to the heart Straight for this precious shining How can you steal my flame One from the heart One for this precious shining How can you steal my flame My flame My flame My flame
MISSING
And as I wander down to where you lay The blood rushed up to meet the roses in your hair I thought I saw you smile But now I don’t see you anywhere Whispering your love song in my ear How can you touch me When you’re not really there Stumbling out I made my way towards the open door Climbing fast the sun poured streaming down into your empty gaze I cannot find you Now I want to join in your game I hear you calling I hear you calling Calling Calling Whispering your love song in my ear How can you touch me
How do you really dare
THE PROMISE
Whose tears on a gaping void Stretching arms match the hungry of mine These lips will they never join
And always draw me closer and further entwined With a promise dealer understand all freedoms fade away
To a point of view where many different pathways meet And we’re standing on this precipice with nothing much to say With a deep blue screams of falling dreams with our next move Heaven hide your eyes (Heaven hide your eyes) Heaven’s eyes will never dry (they will never dry) The shades of a thousand steal Come flashing by my face in the fury of war In desolation and abandon fields The hungry make their stand when they’ll stand for no more Hear the passion in their voices, see the heaven in their eyes (heaven in their eyes) Their hopes and schemes are waking dreams for less than paradise (less than paradise) And sometimes we make promises we never mean to keep (never mean to keep) For blackmail is the only deal a promise dealer sees Heaven hide your eyes (heaven hide your eyes) Heaven’s eyes will never dry (they will never dry) Heaven hide your eyes (heaven hide your eyes) Heaven’s eyes will never dry (they will never dry) Heaven hide your eyes (heaven hide your eyes) Heaven’s eyes will never dry (they will never dry) Heaven hide your eyes (heaven hide your eyes) Heaven’s eyes will never dry (they will never dry) Heaven hide your eyes (heaven hide your eyes) Heaven’s eyes will never dry
LADY ICE
Lady ice slips into her soul Lady ice leaves a house so cold Lady ice did you know that the world was lonely too Drifting snows searching plains and high Turning stones as she looks for the heart somebody stole She knows the violation Of lover’s arms without occasion And who knows where to find the true heart for lady ice? Mesmerized in the candle flame Compromised by the cruel bands of steal around her breasts She knows the desolation Of lover’s arms, their isolation And who knows where to find the true heart for lady ice Lady’s eyes slip away from the part she plays in school She knows of rolls and hideaways Suppose she knows but turns away She knows where to find the true heart for lady ice Lady ice step outside your soul Lady ice do you know that the world is frightened too?
SAY THE WORD (TAKEN FROM "PLAYING FOR KEEPS" - SOUNDTRACK)
There’s a skill it’s nothing we could learn at school With the will to survive beneath this rule Money thrives as corruption’s president To waste the lives of the young and innocent But after all every system can be disobeyed
So when we call please don’t think twice or be afraid Hey, mister Say something Say the word if your eyes are open Say the word before this love is broken Say the word The lights are down but you don’t sleep so tight The word’s around that we play for keeps tonight As we all know even the best laid plans go wrong sometime But if it blows we’ll be the ones they victimize Hey, mister Say something Say the word if your eyes are open It's time we tried Say the word before this love is broken Say the word if your eyes are open It’s time we tried Say the word before this love is broken Say the word if your eyes are open It’s time we tried Say the word before this love is broken
