I never meant to be so bad to you One thing I said that I would never do One look from you and I would fall from grace And that would wipe this smile right from my face Do you remember when we used to dance And incidence arose from circumstance One thing lead to another we were young And we would scream together songs unsung It was the heat of the moment Telling me what your heart meant Heat of the moment shone in your eyes And now you find yourself in 82 The disco hotspots hold no charm for you You can't concern yourself with bigger things You catch the pearl and ride the dragon's wings It was the heat of the moment Telling me what your heart meant Heat of the moment shone in your eyes And when your looks are gone and you're alone How many nights you sit beside the phone What were the things you wanted for yourself Teenage ambition you remember well It was the heat of the moment Telling me what your heart meant Heat of the moment shone in your eyes It was the heat of the moment Telling me what your heart meant Heat of the moment shone in your eyes
You're leaving now
It's in your eyes
There's no disguising it
It really comes as no surprise
To find that you planned it all along
I see it now
Becomes so clear
Your insincerity
And me all starrey-eyed
To think that I would have know by now
Now, sure as the sun will cross the sky
This lie is over
Lost, like the tears that used to tide me over
{Only time will tell}
One thing is sure
That time will tell
{Only time will tell}
If you were wrong
The brightest ring around the moon
Will darken when I die
Now, sure as the sun will cross the sky
This lie is over
Lost, like the tears that used to tide me over
You're leaving now
It's in your eyes
There's no disguising it
It really comes as no surprise
To find that you planned it all along
I see it now
Becomes so clear
Your insincerity
And me all starrey-eyed
To think that I would have know by now
Now, sure as the sun will cross the sky
This lie is over
Lost, like the tears that used to tide me over
(Only time will tell)
You're on your own
Inside your room
(Only time will tell)
You're claiming victory
You were just using me
And there is no one you can use now
(Only time will tell)
One thing is sure
That time will tell…
The fighting's over now There's nowhere left to run My ammunition's out I'd better put down my gun And as I face this life of fear I'd better keep my conscience clear Inside my mind I'm out of it And I ain't never coming back So don't come running here to find me 'Cos I'm a military man And as I spin this wheel of fortune In my military world I'm a military man The architects of time Are calling me But I don't believe it Necessarily And as I face this life of fear Break the chains That bind me here Inside my head I'm out of it But I'm still never coming back So don't come running here to find me 'Cos I'm a military man And as I spin this wheel of fortune In my military world I'm a military man I'm a military man Just a military man yes I am
Laser, breathing on my window Two strings, beating out of time Koto, warning of the danger Wake up, is your head still mine? Now they give you reasons To fight for love That's enough In a paper world That's enough Said the Chinese girl That's enough Another city falls Just because we're two sides of the moon Data, streaming through my window Chrome stars, whispering their lies Black sky, hides approaching stranger Reach out, two should now be one Disregard the reasons And look above That's enough In a paper world That's enough Said the Siamese girl That's enough Another city falls Just because we're two sides of the moon
We are the future within our dome A new generation, we live alone Washed the words from the subway wall We had to fight to survive You still can have it all So listen to our cry With a mind of steel, but a heart of gold The winds of change you can move the stone By the hands of love you must free the soul To live forever with a heart of gold We are the future, we hold the key The messengers are calling, "wake up your race" All but man did turn to dust Then we saw her fall Cut her down by the sword of greed So listen to our cry With a mind of steel, but a heart of gold The winds of change you can move the stone By the hands of love you must free the soul To live forever with a heart of gold With a mind of steel, but a heart of gold The winds of change you can move the stone By the hands of love you must free the soul To live forever with a heart of gold You are the future, it's up to you You are the future, it's up to you
You walk tall, got your head in the clouds You talk soft, but you're thinking aloud And you know, exactly what you want You box shy, you're hard to get You got the face that I can't forget And I know, I know The Heat Goes On I know that The Heat Goes On I know that The Heat Goes On You play tight, you're nobody's fool You're not cold, but I know that you're cool Look at you, I know The Heat Goes On Now tell me, with your hand on you're heart That you knew, you were right from the start And you're sure, you felt it all along You know that The Heat Goes On You know that The Heat Goes On Times to decide, times that I've lied Problems will never be solved Which way is wrong, which could be right? This heat will always go on You walk tall, got your head in the clouds You talk soft, but you're thinking aloud And you know, exactly what you want You box shy, you're hard to get You got the face that I'll never forget You and I know, we know The Heat Goes On
Dig for victory, go for gold I don't wanna die before I get old And I wonder where I'm going to There's some way out, there's some way through But I'm lost, I'm lost, I'm down again My direction is changing, which way, Which way can I go... Get up and go You start me up, you slow me down No one can deny you get around When you're hot, you're cold, you're in between Asking myself what does it mean? And I walk that tightrope, you should know I'm losing my balance, maybe, Maybe I should go... Get up and go Face to face in sympathy But now you turn your back on me Turn a card and win, but you may lose Fate only has that right to choose If you're right, leave me here, I'll die alone You've got the time, you've just got time You got the time just go... Get up and go Go Just go…
I told her, I'd hold her All through that first cold winter Defend her, protect her From our darkest demons Then spring came, our world changed We found a different corner Still heading, still searching For what we had that season I thought I was so strong, a man on a blue mountain The sword in my hand, but my thoughts in the clouds then See them Hear them I would never change another day If that season was the one to stay I swear I'd never change another day Ten years now, I've waited For that coldest winter No whiter, no wiser And all we hear is thunder I thought I was so strong, a father on a mountain The sword in my hand, but my thoughts in the clouds then See them Hear them I would never change another day If that season was the one to stay I swear I'd never change another day I would never change another day If that season was the one to stay I swear I'd never change another day Ten years now, I've waited For that coldest winter No wiser, no whiter Oh how I miss that season
Hard times you had before you I knew when I first saw you You girl you’ve always been mistreated, cheated So leave it all behind you It took so long to find you I know that we can last forever, ever and more, more, oh Don't cry now that I’ve found you Don't cry take a look around you Don't cry it took so long to find you Do what you want, but little Darling please don't cry I knew I’d never doubt it I was so sure about it Don't think of all that’s been before I'll hear you when you’re calling I'll catch you when you’re falling Don't worry I will always be there, like never before, or, oh Don't cry now that I've found you… Don't cry now that I've found you…
This problem is insoluble The answers seem impossible The logic ceases to exist Emotion is the beat we miss I stand on a world Where dreams, realities, existence are the same We take from the mother's skin But the world is not to blame Who tells the wind which way to blow? I wonder who will stop the rain The rocks that hold the secrets, they don't know So who can stop the rain? We've lost the path for all we know Now tell me when will it start again? And as the old man lifts his hands Please can you stop the rain? Stars fall far away Like they never did before A new moon shining Like it never will again Who tells the wind which way to blow? I wonder who will stop the rain The rocks that hold the secrets, they don't know So who can stop the rain? We've lost the path for all we know Now tell me when will it start again? And as the old man lifts his hands Please can you stop the rain? Desert white cloud Spirits they sing Rain falls from the big sky Onto broken wing There is no sense in turning back To wash the debris from the track World without fears without rhyme We fought for peace within our time Who tells the wind which way to blow? I wonder who will stop the rain The rocks that hold the secrets, they don't know So who can stop the rain? We've lost the path for all we know Now tell me when will it start again? And as the old man lifts his hands Please can you stop the rain?
Don't want to live in another world Don't want to dream of another girl That's the way it was meant to be I couldn't sleep through the lonely night I just cried till the morning It's not the way it was meant to be Someday you may find somebody else Someday love my shine on you Someday you may find the one You didn't leave me, you ran away Couldn't face what you had to say It's not the way it was meant to be Now you can live in your other world Me, i've found me another girl And that's the way it was meant to be Someday you may find somebody else Someday love my shine on you Someday you may find the one When I dream, I dream of one world But I know there's no such place If I could ever find that one girl In my world, in my world Someday you may find somebody else Someday love my shine on you Someday you may find the one
It don't come easy, that's understood Faint-hearted loser, that's no good Just take a lesson from the great Mohammed He said... He said... Pick up a rifle, you must be strong To take a title, can be so long If you believe, you can't go wrong I said... I said... Listen He's a fighter, he's my friend, Always winning in the end, He's no angel, he's no fool, Never plays it by the rule, Take the glory, steal the prize, Only The Hunter, Only The Hunter You took your chances, you hurt your pride A sense of failure, is hard to hard You crossed the limit, you broke the code Back on the road... Remember? He's a rival, he's my friend, Always winning in the end, He's a tiger, he's a swan, He's the one I'm counting on, To take the glory, steal the prize, Only The Hunter, Only The Hunter survives I'm on the outside, I'm looking in Through the lenses, then into film I've got the target set in my sights I see a vision of truth... Look out! We're gonna fight until we drop, We're gonna get back to the top, We're gonna be the first in line, Winners till the end of time Only The Hunter, Only The Hunter, Only The Hunter, Only The Hunter, Survives
Time and tide, Are the dreams that come and go, They wait for no man on the shore. Should you step, In the same dark river twice, Let it wash the sins away, Is there time at hand, With so much to say? And I know, it's a different world today, And I know, to another God we pray, And I know, we're in different worlds today. Here I stand, My philosophy held high, Like a preacher in a foreign land. And here we walk, In the wilderness of sands, With the prophet and the holy man. Is there time at hand, With so much to say? And I know, it's a different world today, And I know, to another God we pray, And I know, we're in different worlds today, And I know, it's a different world today. They're burning the Book, they're burning the faith, Our dream will be over, Let's wake from the sleep, a legion we'll be, To live forever. I know I as wrong, I have to put it right, I just can't let it slip away, 'Cause it's a different world today. Different world, different world, different world today, Is it a better world today?
