Behind the Mask

Skies the Limit (McVie/Quintela)

If I've been acting just a little strange
And you have noticed it too
It's 'cos my life has been rearranged
With the presence of you

The sky is the limit now
We can hit it on the nail
And when we do
I'll think about you
How we can fail

Can you give me one reason why
You'd ever let me down
I won't believe it baby, but I'll try
The truth's goin' to come around

The sky is the limit now
We can hit it on the nail
And when we do
I'll think about you
How we can fail
The sky is the limit
Oh the sky is the limit
How can we fail

Sooner or later
I'll keep the promise
I made to you
Sooner or later
It will be greater
Than we ever knew

The sky is the limit now
We can hit it on the nail
And when we do
I'll think about you

The sky is the limit now
We can hit it on the nail
And when we do
I'll think about you
How we can fail
The sky is the limit

Oh the sky is the limit
How can we fail
The sky is the limit
Oh the sky is the limit
How can we fail
The sky is the limit
Oh the sky is the limit
How can we fail
The sky is the limit
Oh the sky is the limit
How can we fail
The sky is the limit

Do You Know (McVie/Burnette)

Do you know
All there is to know about love
And if you do
Then let me know
If I have learned enough
To make it without you

Can I learn
All about love
I don't know enough to make it alone
Well I can leave it just the way it was
I can try
I'm gonna try

And if I fall
If I ever fall in love again
I hope I will feel the same

Can I learn
All about love
I don't know enough to make it alone
Well I can leave it just the way it was
I can try
Do you know all about love
Do you know enough to make it alone
Can you just leave it the way it was
Can you try

Can I learn
All about love
I don't know enough to make it alone
Well I can leave it just the way it was
I can try

Do you know
All about love
Do you know enough to make it alone
Can you just leave it the way it was
Can you try

Well I can leave it just the way it was
Let me try
Well I can leave it just the way it was
Let me try
Well I can leave it just the way it was

Save Me (McVie/Quintela)

Hey you
The one with the laughing eyes
You, the one with the haunting stare
Well you
You have the power to hypnotize
I should'a known better
I should believe

'Cos I have followed you
Done everything for you
But you just won't look my way
So come on baby and

Save me
I'm running for cover
Save me
Is it one of the other babe
Save me
It's time for somebody else
Save me

Well you, you could own the universe
Think about it and you'll realize
You, you got to believe me
And take my word
Look at me
It's written in my eyes

'Cos I have followed you
Done everything for you
But you just won't look my way
So come on baby and

Save me
I'm running for cover
Save me
Is it one of the other babe
Save me
I guess it's
Time for somebody else
Save me

I can't wait any longer
For paradise
I told you once
I'm not gonna tell you twice
So come on baby and
'Cos I have followed you
Done everything for you
But you just won't look my way
So come on baby and

Save me
I'm running for cover
Save me
Is it one of the other babe
Save me
I guess it's time for somebody else
Save me

Save me
I'm running for cover
Save me
Is it one of the other babe
Save me
It's time for somebody else
Save me

Save me
Save me
Save me
Save me

Save me
Save me
Save me

Behind the Mask

Don't you come too close to me
You're dangerous, can't you see
You can make the darkness mean more
Than it ever did
Ever did before

It's a devil's disguise
Angel in black
And I recognize the face behind the mask
It's a devil's disguise
Angel in black
I don't know if I want you back

You're the cool nights of the desert
And the hot kisses of the sun
Why is it that I don't believe you
When you say I'm the only one
I know I'm the lonely one

It's a devil's disguise
Angel in black
And I recognize the shadows from your past
It's a devil's disguise
Angel in black
Don't know if it'll ever last
The face behind the mask

There will never be a second chance for you
Oh no
Not for you

It's a devil's disguise
Angel in black
And I recognize the face behind the mask
It's a devil's disguise
Angel in black
Don't know if it'll ever last
The face behind the mask

It's a devil's disguise
Angel in black
And I recognize the shadows from your past
It's a devil's disguise
Angel in black
I don't know if I want you back
I don't know if I want you back
Don't you know it'll never last
The face behind the mask


The Chain - 25 Years

Love Shines (McVie)

You've got a sweet heart
Never will you be replaced
And it's so hard
The memory can't be erased

Love shines when I think of you
You make it happen you make it true
Love shines there can be no doubt
What this feeling is all about

Oh baby your love shines
Love shines so bright
So bright
Oh don't you know your
Love shines
Love shines so bright

On and on it will always be
Rhythm, rhyme and harmony
Yeah baby your
Love shines
Love shines tonight

You cast a spell
A magical revelation
And I see so well
My ultimate destination

Love shines when I think of you
You make it happen you make it true

Love shines there can be no doubt
What this feeling is all about

Oh baby your love shines
Love shines so bright
So bright
Oh don't you know your
Love shines
Love shines so bright

On and on it will always be
Rhythm, rhyme and harmony
Yeah baby your
Love shines
Love shines tonight

After all the reckoning
After all the promises
All the darkness in my heart
Has gone away

So on and on it will always be
Rhythm, rhyme and harmony
Yes baby your love shines
Love shines tonight

Oh don't you know your love shines
Love shines so bright
Oh baby your love shines
Love shines so bright


Heart of Stone (McVie)

Oh I have seen
Such madness in the air
Just like a dream
It makes no sense anywhere

Hopes have shattered
Shattered like broken glass
I believed it was just too good to last
(It seemed to me it was too good to last)

So now you're saying you've been wrong
And you want to come back home
You know I've known all along
That you had a heart of stone

And now you want to change your song
You're tired of living alone
You know I've known all along
That you had a heart made of stone

But don't you remember
Those days of cold delight
We could make it all right

It seems so long ago
Oh maybe it was yesterday
Where did the time go
I guess it just slipped away
(Seemed like the time was slipping away)

So now you're saying you've been wrong
And you want to come back home
You know I've known all along
That you had a heart of stone

And now you want to change your song
You're tired of living alone
You know I've known all along
That you had a heart made of stone

You're never too old to learn
You're never too young to pray
It's never too late to learn
And hope for better days

You're never too old to learn
You're never too young to pray
It's never too late to learn
And hope for better days

So now you're saying you've been wrong
And you want to come back home
You know I've known all along
That you had a heart of stone

And now you want to change your song
You're tired of living alone
You know I've known all along
That you had a heart made of stone

So now you're saying you've been wrong
And you want to come back home
You know I've known all along
That you had a heart of stone



Time

Hollywood (Some Other Kind of Town) (McVie/Quintela)

The bright lights of the city
Are starting to wear me down
And when I need you
You just can't be found

Loud days, endless nights
Are starting to make me crazy
And now you're gone
There's nothing left for me

Chorus:
(Hollywood)
I don't care for sunny weather
(Ain't that good)
I like the change of seasons better
(Knock on wood)
I love the feel of rain upon my face
(For Hollywood)
(Hollywood)

No and I don't care if the snow comes down
(Ain't that good)
Kick the falling leaves around
(Knock on wood)
Got to move to some other kind of town
(For Hollywood)

Wonderful to know you
Great to know you cared
As I look back
At the crazy things we've shared

I was dazzled by the moonlight
Blinded by neon nights
And as I look back
It never could be right

Chorus

Well I was dazzled by the moonlight
Blinded by neon nights
And now I see
It never could be right

Chorus

Some other kind of town...

I Do (McVie/Quintela)

Oh my mind is made up about you
Now and always
Though the seasons come and they go
Nothing will ever change

Well I took a little chance
And I laid my heart down
I thought you'd be the one
Who would always stick around

I took a little time
Though I knew it would be
That we had a date with destiny

Chorus:

Well out of the darkness
And out of the long black night
You have given me heart, yes
And you showed me the light
And I do, I do
I love you for what you are

Well this heart of mine
I know it so well
There are so many strange stories
That I could tell
Many is the time
I went out on a limb
You reached out for me baby
And you brought me back again

A lot of stormy nights
I've seen many a full moon, but darling
This is love in the afternoon

Chorus:
So out of the darkness
And out of the long black night
You have given me heart, yes
And you showed me the light
And I do, I do
I love you for what you are

Yes I love you for what you are

I love you for what you are
I do love you for what you are
Yes I do love you for what you are


Sooner Or Later (McVie/Quintela)

I thought I'd let you go
In my heart and in my mind
And look towards the future
Leaving the past behind

Well maybe it's the season
That season of the year
Defying all my reason
I just want you to be here
I want you to be here

Chorus 1:
Sooner or later
Sooner or later I'll forget
I want you to be there
Sooner or later
Sooner or later I'll forget

And though it's not the first time
I've thought of you this way
The darkness of the winter
Keeps my happiness at bay

It's easy to forget you
In the summer, in the light
With the days of lazy laughter
And sweet, sweet dreams in the night
Sweet dreams in the night

Chorus 2:
Sooner or later
Sooner or later I'll forget
Sweet dreams in the night
Sooner or later
Sooner or later I'll forget

So all I really mean is
When all is said and all is done
It's all because of you babe
That I am the lucky one
I am the lucky one

Chorus 3: Sooner or later
Sooner or later I'll forget
I am the lucky one
Sooner or later
Sooner or later I'll forget

I am the lucky one

Chorus 3

Nights In Estoril (McVie/Quintela)

Well there will be times
When the memories fade
There will be words we've said
We just can't take away
I'm only saying
That as time goes sailing on
Nothing is forgotten baby
Nothing is really gone

Chorus:
I remember the nights in Estoril
A kiss and oh the never ending thrill
And I remember the coming storm
Oh and you my love, how you kept me warm

Well there will be times
When we can't agree
We can't help but see things
A little differently
I'm only saying
That as time goes sailing on
How could something so right
Ever be wrong

Chorus
Your hand reaching out to me
Dark clouds gathering in their wake
I've seen it all before
But I've never felt it more
This time there is no mistake
Oh I remember

And I remember the coming storm
Oh and you my love, how you kept me warm

Chorus
I remember
Remember...

All Over Again (McVie/Quintela)

Well it's time to say goodnight
And finally turn out the light
How do I say in some simple way
How much you have been on my mind

But I have to let you go
It's time to move on, don't you know
But you can rely on a love that won't die
For haven't I told you so

So let's stop before it's too late
And leave it all up to the fates
Cause in spite of all the heartaches
And troubles in love
I'd do it all over
Do it all over again

Each of us and everyone
Carries a burden of love
But as far as I go in my heart I know
It's you I'll be thinking of

So what is there left to say
As I see us drifting away
You can always depend on a love that won't end
Won't you think of me, think of me that way

So let's stop before it's too late
And leave it all up to the fates
Cause in spite of all the heartaches
And troubles in love
I'd do it all over
Do it all over again

Well it's time to move on to the rain
And finally break the chain
In spite of the heartaches
And troubles in love
I'd do it all over (do it all over)
Do it all over again
Stop before it's too late

Cause in spite of the heartaches
And troubles in love
I'd do it all over again (do it all over)
I'd do it all over again


The Dance

Temporary One (McVie/Quintela)

Where are you darlin', when my
Moon is risin', and your
Sun is shinin' down

What are you doin', are you
Missin' me
The way that I'm missin' you now

Chorus:
The river goes on and on, and the
Sea that divides us is a
Temporary one, and the
Bridge will bring us back together

What are you doin', goin'
Down in to Soho as I
Take my rest tonight

What are you doin', are you
Busy with your world
Well I wish you were busy with mine
