SONG: All Or Nothing
 
I´d bet my soul on a roll of a dice

I hit the ground runnin´

And I never think twice

I´d brave the heat of a

Wild cat fire to satisfy

My animal desire

Can´t stop me now

I´ve set my sights on you

Right to your heart

My aim is true, that´s why

All or nothing at all

Is how I feel about it

Won´t stand my back to the wall

I´ll find my way around it

All or nothing at all

There´s nothing I won´t do

And the one thing I want

All of is you

Don´t want to labor at love

Rather do without

Won´t carry the tourch

I want to burn down the house

I wanna give you all my lovin´

Baby listen to this

I would never settle for

Anything less

Can´t stop me now

Once you´ve got me goin´

Can´t slow me down

I´m driven by your motion


SONG:  Halfway To Heaven

Another day has come

Can´t face it on my own

I almost let you walk away

I guess I should have known

I´ll give it to you straight

´Cause some things just can´t wait

I´ve got to make it up to you

And I´ll pray it´s not too late

´Cause when you look at me

With those sad blue eyes

It stops me cold and I realize

You´re all I need tonight

We´re halfway to heaven

Lyin´ beside you on a night

So still

We´re halfway to heaven

I ask you if you´ll stay and baby

Say you will

So what´s a man to do

To get it through to you

Another lost and lonely night

Would break this heart in two

So let´s take a chance

And it´ll be alright

Just put your trusr in me tonight

Girl we´re almost there

We´re halfway to heaven

There´s something magic

´Bout the way you kiss

We´re halfway to heaven

Runnin´ with you baby

On a night like this

We´re halfway to heaven

I never dreamed that

I could get this high

We´re halfway to heaven

Girl I couldn´t leave you

Even if I tried

You got me captured

In a crazy spin

You got me so I just

Can´t tell the shape I´m in

SONG: I'll Cry For You

I never dreamed that

I could fall

But something´s come

Over me

Now I´m sittin´ starin´

At the wall

Afraid for my sanity

The sound of your voice

The touch of your skin

It´s hauntin´ me

I´m still tryin´ to come

To my senses

But I can´t look back

So I´m takin´ my chances

I wanna give you my heart

Give you my soul

I wanna lay in your arms

Never let go

Don´t wanna live my

Life without you

But I know when you´re gone

Like a fire needs a spark

Like a fool in the dark

I´ll cry for you

Wonderin´ why I´m

Runnin´ scared

From what I belive in

I know that love

Is just another word

To say what I´m feelin´

For once in my life

The future is mine

It´s callin´ me

I´ve been searchin´ so long

For an answer

But it´s too late now

So I´m takin´ my chances

SONG:  Little Bit Of Lovin'

Give a little bit of lovin´

And I´ll treat you right

Give a little bit of lovin´

And I´ll stay the night

Just like a gypsy

I come to town

I´ve been longin´ for that girl

I left behind

I might be a fool yeah

But come what may

I´ve been lovin´ every minute

Everyday

Give a little bit of lovin´

And I´ll treat you right

Give a little bit of lovin´

And I´ll stay the night

I don´t need nobody

I stand alone

But there´s a woman that I

Like to call my own

I ain´t got the money

To make her shine

But I´ve got plenty other ways

To make her mine

Give a little bit of lovin´

And I´ll treat you right

Give a little bit of lovin´

And I´ll stay the night

You got to give me some lovin´

I´m gonna make you feel so good

She´s got deadly eyes

A twisted mind

She´s one in a million

One of a kind

Cold chills runnin´

Down to the bone

She gives me lovin´

Like I´ve never known

We tumble and roll over

´Til the break of day

She´s so wild

Blows my world away

With her there´s nothin´

I wouldn´t do

Baby we´ve got something

To hold on to

Lay it down and it´s plain to see

The woman´s got the best of me

SONG:  Talk To Me

It´s not like before baby

Tou can´t come running back no more

And talk to me

When it cuts like a knife

You just talk to me baby

When the feelin´ ain´t right

Who do you think you´re foolin´

Not me

Septermber rain i sfallin´

I see you on the street

Just passin´ by

And though your lips are smilin´

I can see the coldness in your eyes

So hell is what you´ve been through

I never thought I´d see you

´Round here no more

Now you need someone to talk to

Just like before

You only talk to me

When it cuts like a knife

You just talk to me baby

When you hurt deep inside

Who do you think you´re foolin´

Not me

You had to have it your way

From you that was a promise

And a threat

Now you look for consulation

Just remember what you give

Is what you get

The hardest part was changin´

I was holdin´ on to dreams

From yesterday

I used to be here waitin´

Here´s what I say

You only talk to me

When it cuts like a knife

You just talk to me baby

When the feelin´ ain´t right

Who do you think you´re foolin´

Not me

  
SONG:  Seventh Sign

I´ve been sailin´ ´cross the ocean

With the devil by my side

I´ve been flyin ´cross the great

Blue sky

But there´s nowhere to hide

I´ve been standin´ by the crossroads

I´ve been lookin´ for a clue

I´ve been prayin´ for the

Human race

There´s not a lot I can do

I´ve been waitin´ for the warnin´

As we look to the sky

Now we all seem lost

If you ask me why

It´s the seventh sign

See the blood-red sky tonight

It´s the sevents sign

See the blood-red sky

There´s a voice out on the wasteland

It says we´re runnin´ out of time

I used to think the world

Could change

Lord I must have been blind

I´ve been cryin´out for mankind

I´ve been hangin´ on to faith

But the comin´ of a messenger

Says it´s much too late

We could all come together

And gather all around

What good is war when we

All go down


SONG:  Prisoners In Paradise

I want to learn how to fly

I want to be respected

I want to get lucky

I want to get out of this dump

I just want to watch tv

I want to be loved

I want to be different

I want a brother and sister

I´d just rather be forgotten

I want to save the world

I want to be understood

I want to be rich

Man, I just want to be somebody

Julie´s got the word today

She lost her job just one last pay

Life don´t come easy anymore

Still strugglin´on by herself

Got a picture of Jimmy

There on the shelf

And she looks at him and says

Why did we let it go

I know that sometimes baby

We didn´t see things eye-to-eye

But I got just one question

Did we have to say goodbye

Just like prisoners in paradise

Still far from heaven´s door

We had it all but still we

Wanted more

Now I realize that I can´t

Turn back the future´s here

To stay but hey

We´re just children of tomorrow

Hangin´ on to yesterday

Jimmy still recalls the night

When he took his guitar

And headed on out

To find the big time

That was his dream

He gave up his past

And made it alright

But there´s something missin´

In his heart tonight

Sometimes what you want

Ain´t what you need

He misses drivin´ down

To the lake at night

Holdin´ his baby

In his arms so tight

Ain´t it hard to find illusions

When you´re livin´ in a memory

Just like prisoners in paradise

So close but yet so far

There will come a time

No matter who you are

When you ask yourself

Was it right or wrong

For me to turn away but hey

We´re just children of tomorrow

Hangin´ on to yesterday





SONG:  Bad Blood

Always lookin´ for a good time

She came on just like a hurricane

Man she was far too hot to handle

Like fightin´ fire with gasoline

All I needed was compassion

I´d been out there on my own too long

But she hungered for my lovin´

That first bite chilled me

To the bone

Bad blood

Runnin´ through my veins

Bad, bad blood

Is drivin´ me insane

Hey I´ve become a wild one

I´m not quite the man I used to be

Just like livin´ on a knife edge

That woman put a spell on me

Bad blood

Runnin´ through my veins

Bad, bad blood

Is drivin´ me insane

Always lookin´ for a good time

I come on just like a hurricane

Now I´m far too hot to handle

Like fightin´ fire with gasoline




SONG:  Homeland

Remember that summer

Down by the shoreline

I still can hear those old

Forgotten songs

And we made promises

To last forever

I just can´t belive those

Days are gone

There used to be a place

That we could call our own

We used to think tomorrow

Was a long, long time

But sadness filled my heart

When I knew the moment had come

When I had to leave those days

Behind

I felt so free

Where I wanted to be

The days went so fast

How I wish they could last

So far from my homeland

I´m lost in time

My soul´s still searchin´

For that peace of mind

Those sacred landscapes

Come miles around

And my heart´s still beatin´

For those country grounds

Remember when our hearts

Were filled with laughter

It echoes in my trail

Of fallen tears

But no matter where I am today

Or what the future might bring

I will remember those

Long gone years

I can´t let go

I wanna know

Does it have to end

For the best of friends

So far from my homeland

I´m lost in time

And my soul´s still searchin´

For that peace of mind

Those sacred landscapes

Come miles around

And my heart´s still beatin´

For those country grounds

Lord I know

That those days are gone

Long, long, gone

I felt so free

Where I wanted to be

The days went so fast

How I wish they could last

SONG:  Got Your Mind In The Gutter

What´s a man to do

When he´s bein´ accused

I hear you talkin´

It´s real bad news

Nothin´ happened with

That girl last night

So baby won´t you

Tell me why


You got your mind in the gutter

You got your mind in the gutter

You´re jumpin´ to conclusions

And it´s plain to see

You got your mind in the gutter

Don´t blame me

So you say I´m foolin´ ´round

Playin´ the field

Baby let me tell you

It´s no big deal

No I ain´t gettin´ 

A little on the side

But I feel like a prisoner

With both hands tied

You say you found a number

On a matchbook in my coat

And lipstick smeared

On my shirt

I hate to disappoint you

And it scares me to death

That if your shovel ain´t full

You just keep diggin´ up

Some dirt

You´ve pushed me into a corner

You´ve got my back to thte wall

I stand accused of bein´

Some kind of liar

Hey I wouldn´t hose you down

If you were on fire

You´ve got your mind in the gutter

You´ve got your mind in the gutter

Baby I keep those women

Far away from my skin

But since your mind´s

In the gutter

Man I just can´t win

I took her aside

To give her my point of view

What you tryin´ to pull babe

It just ain´t true

There should be a warnin´

Up above your cage

Sayin´ don´t feed the lion

She´s in a state of rage

How can I prove

That I´ve done nothin´ wrong

You know in your heart

That you´re all that I want

Youre all fired up

Just a little bit too tight

Now babe whata can I tell you

You just ain´t right

Aint got a baad reputation

So why you tearin´ it down

Don´t know what happened

But your mind´s gone south

No I can´t believe what comes

Out of your mouth

You´ve got your mind in the gutter

You´ve got your mind in the gutter

I know what you´re sayin´

But it just ain´t true

You´ve got your mind in the gutter

Baby shame on you

So you say I´m foolin´ ´round

Playin´ the field

You know better

´Cause it´s no big deal

I ain´t gettin´ a little

On thte side

Baby what can I tell you

You just ain´t right

SONG:  'Til My Heart Beats Down Your Door

Hey you should know by now

I´m gonna take you down

Can´t keep me out forever

´Cause now I´m back around

Put your best defense

I´ve made up my mind

I ain´t like the others

I´m gonna make you mine

I´m gonna keep on knockin´

Knockin´ like before

´Til my heart beats down your door

I´m gonna keep on comin´

Comin´ back for more

´Til my heart

´Til my heart beats down your door

Baby you know you love me

So why do you pretend

When I could make you happy

If you just let me in

Well I remember better days

With you by my side

I´ll keep you warm forever

And if it takes all night

SONG:  Girl From Lebanon

It´s time to break out from the cage

It´s time to change your ways

It´s time to find those

Shattered dreams

That vanished in the haze

It´s time to lose those

Concrete shoes

They held you down too long ´cause

Trouble days have come and gone

And the night has just begun

Another dawn is yet to come

Carry on my little one

Girl from lebanon

It´s time to meet the cahnges

They come from all around

It´s time for you to realize

Freedom has been found

It´s time to meet the future

And forget about the past

It´s time to make a good thing last

And the night has just begun

Another dawn is yet to come

Carry on my little one

Girl from Lebanon

It´s time to cut the barbwire

And walk out on the street

It´s time that we stayed

Up all night

And lose all kinds of sleep

It´s time to wear those bright

Blue jeans

And let your hair hang down

The word of peace is goin´ ´round
