~*~Lyrics~*~

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes

No one knows what it's like
To be hated
To be fated
To telling only lies

But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be

I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free

No one knows what it's like
To feel these feelings
Like I do
And I blame you

No one bites back as hard
On their anger
None of my pain and woe
Can show through

But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be

I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free

When my fist clenches, crack it open
Before I use it and lose my cool
When I smile, tell me some bad news
Before I laugh and act like a fool

And if I swallow anything evil
Put your finger down my throat
And if I shiver, please give me a blanket
Keep me warm, let me wear your coat

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes

There's a story in my eyes
Turn the pages of desire
Now it's time to trade those dreams
For the rush of passion's fire
I can feel you tremble when we touch
And I feel the hand of fate
Reaching out to both of us

I've been holding back the night
I've been searching for a clue from you
I'm gonna try with all my might
To make this story line come true

Can ya feel me tremble when we touch
Can ya feel the hand of fate
Reaching out to both of us
This love affair can't wait

I can't hold back, I'm on the edge
I can't hold back Your voice explodes inside my head
I can't hold back, I won't back down
Girl it's too late to turn back now

Another shooting star goes by
And in the night the silence speaks to you and I
And now the time has come at last
Don't let the moment run too fast

I can feel you tremble when we touch
And I feel the hand of fate
Reaching out to both of us

There's a story in my eyes
Turn the pages of desire
Now it's time to trade those dreams
For the rush of passion's fire

I can't hold back, I'm on the edge
I can't hold back Your voice explodes inside my head
I can't hold back, I won't back down
Girl it's too late to turn back now

I can feel you tremble when we touch
And I feel the hand of fate
Reaching out to both of us
This love affair can't wait

I can't hold back
I can't hold back
I can't hold back
I can't hold back

Close your eyes
Give me your hand, Darling
Do you feel my heart beating?
Do you understand?
Do you feel the same?
Am I only dreaming?
Is this burning an eternal flame?

I believe it's meant to be, Darling
I watch you when you are sleeping
You belong with me
Do you feel the same?
Am I only dreaming?
Or is this burning an eternal flame?

Say my name
Sun shines through the rain
My whole life so lonely
You come and ease the pain
I don't wanna lose this feeling
Ooooh...

Say my name
Sun shines through the rain
My whole life so lonely
You come and ease the pain
I don't wanna lose this feeling
Oooh...

Close your eyes
Give me your hand
Do you feel my heart beating?
Do you understand?
Do you feel the same?
Am I only dreaming?
Or is this burning an eternal flame?

Close your eyes
Give me your hand, Darling
Do you feel my heart beating?
Do you understand?
Do you feel the same?
Am I only dreaming?
Is this burning an eternal flame?

Close your eyes
Give me your hand
(Give me your hand)
Do you feel my heart beating?
(Do you feel, Do you feel my heart)
Do you understand?
Do you feel the same?
Am I only dreaming?
Is this burning.....?
[fade]

Lines on your face don't bother me
Down in my chair when you dance over me
I can't help myself
I've got to see you again

Late in the night when I'm all alone
And I look at the clock and I know you're not home
I can't help myself
I've got to see you again

I could almost go there
Just to watch you be seen
I could almost go there
Just to live in a dream

But no I won't go for any of those things
To not touch your skin is not why I sing
I can't help myself
I've got to see you again

I could almost go there
Just to watch you be seen
I could almost go there
Just to live in a dream

No I won't go to share you with them
But oh even though I know where
you've been
I can't help myself
I've got to see you again

I waited 'til I saw the sun
I don't know why I didn't come
I left you by the house of fun
I don't know why I didn't come
I don't know why I didn't come

When I saw the break of day
I wished that I could fly away
Instead of kneeling in the sand
Catching teardrops in my hand

My heart is drenched in wine
But you'll be on my mind
Forever

Out across the endless sea
I would die in ecstasy
But I'll be a bag of bones
driving down the road alone

My heart is drenched in wine
But you'll be on my mind
Forever

Something has to make you run
I don't know why I didn't come
I feel as empty as a drum
I don't know why I didn't come
I don't know why I didn't come
I don't know why I didn't come

Sell my soul--I'll sell my soul I've Nothing left to lose
Hurt myself--I'll hurt myself cover
My face with tattoos all of
Painted tears--one for each year that
Only could have been
Anything I can do to keep you
Underneath my skin

Over and over I tell myself
If there's no you there's nobody else and I'd
Rather be only --I'd rather die
Six hundred sixty-six times

By myself--I'm not myself I can't
Be without you
An empty shell--my former self is out
Looking to find you

Over and over I tell myself
If there's no you there's nobody else and I'd
Rather be lonely--I'd rather die
Six hundred sixty-six times

'Til my body is dust
'Til my soul is no more
I will love you, love you

'Til the sun starts to cry
And the moon turns to rust
I will love you, love you

But I need to know--will you stay for all
Time......forever and a day
Then I'll give you my heart 'til the end of all
Time.......forever and a day

(musical bridge)

And I need to know--will you stay for all
Time.....forever and a day
Then I'll give you my heard 'til the end of all
Time.....forever and a day

'Til the storms fill my eyes
'Til we touch the last time
I will love you, love you........

Humming
All the way to Reno
You've dusted the non-believers
And challenged the laws of chance
Now, sweet
You were so sugar sweet
You may as well have had 'kick me'
Fastened on your sleeve

You know what you are,
You're gonna be a star
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star

Wing
Is written on your feet
Your Achilles heel
Is a tendency
To dream
But you've know that from the beginning
You didn't have to go so far
You didn't have to go.

You know what you are,
You're gonna be a star
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star

You know who you are
You know who you are
You know who you are.

Humming
All the way to Reno,
You've written your own directions
And whistled the rules of change

You know what you are
You're gonna be a star
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star

Humming
All the way to Reno
All the way to Reno
All the way to Reno

You're gonna be a star, you are
You're gonna be a star
You're gonna be a star, you are
You're gonna be a star
