| you've gone too far
this time · but I'm dancing on the valentine ·
I tell you somebody's fooling around · with my
chances on the dangerline · I'll cross that bridge
when I find it · another day to make my stand oh
· high time is no time for deciding · if
I should find a helping hand oh |
| why don't you use it
· try not to bruise it · buy time don't
lose it |
| why don't you use it
· try not to bruise it · buy time don't
lose it |
| the reflex is an only
child · he's waiting by the park · the reflex
is in charge to finding treasure in the dark ·
and watching over lucky clover · isn't that bizarre
· every little thing the reflex does leaves you
answered with a question mark |
| I'm on a ride and I
want to get off · but they won't slow down the
roundabout · I sold the renoir and the tv set ·
don't want to be around when this gets out |
| so why don't you use
it · try not to bruise it · buy time don't
lose it |
| why don't you use it
· try not to bruise it · buy time don't
lose it |
| the reflex is an only
child · he's waiting in the park · the reflex
in charge of finding treasure in the dark · and
watching over lucky clover · isn't that bizarre
· every little thing the reflex does is an answer
with a question mark |
| so why don't you use
it · try not to bruise it · buy time don't
lose it |

· try not to bruise it · buy time don't
lose it |

child · he's waiting by the park · the reflex
is in charge to finding treasure in the dark ·
and watching over lucky clover · isn't that bizarre

answered with a question mark |
| oh the reflex what a
game he's hiding all the cards · the reflex is
in charge of finding treasure in the dark · and
watching over lucky clover · isn't that bizarre
· every little thing the reflex does leaves you
answered with a question mark |

|
| shake up
the picture the lizard mixture · with your dance
on the eventide · you got me coming up with answers
· all of which I deny · I said it again
· but could I please rephrase it · maybe
I can catch a ride · I couldn't really put it much
plainer · but I'll wait till you decide ·
send me your warning siren · as if I could ever
hide · last time la luna |
| I light my torch and
wave it for the · new moon on monday · and
a firedance through the night · I stayed the cold
day with a lonely satelite · new moon on monday
· and a firedance through the night · I
stayed the cold day with a lonely satelite |
| breaking away with the
beast of both worlds · a smile that you can't disguise
· every minute I keep finding · clues that
you leave behind · save me from these reminders
· as if I'd forget tonight · this time la
luna |
| I light my torch and
wave it for the · new moon on monday · and
a firedance through the night · I stayed the cold
day with a lonely satelite · new moon on monday
· and a firedance through the night · I
stayed the cold day with a lonely satelite |
| I light my torch and
wave it for the · new moon on monday · and
a firedance through the night · I stayed the cold
day with a lonely satelite · new moon on monday

| (I'M LOOKING FOR) CRACKS IN THE PAVEMENT |
|
| I shed my
skin · when the party was about to begin ·
I'm light years away but I'm walking back tonight ·
of all nights · when I should be feeling just right
· don't want to be in public · my head is
full of chopstick · I don't like it |
| something on my mind
· breaking open doors I had sealed up before ·
something on my mind · makes me run when I thought
I'd run too far |
| somebody shaking my
tree · maybe that somebody is me · I'm standing
in the light but I'm making a break for the shadows on
the cinema wall · they should be mine but I'm not
that tall · now I'm saying this in private ·
if I had a car I'd drive it insane |
| something on my mind
· breaking open doors I had sealed up before ·
something on my mind · makes me run when I thought
I'd run too far · something on my mind ·
breaking open doors I had sealed up before · something
on my mind · makes me run when I thought I'd run
too far |
| I'm looking for cracks
in the pavement |
| something on my mind
· breaking open doors I had sealed up before ·
something on my mind · makes me run when I thought
I'd run too far · something on my mind ·
breaking open doors I had sealed up before · something
on my mind · makes me run when I thought I'd run
too far |

|
| midnight I think I'm
gonna make it · feel the magical lash of the roll
and the crash in their lives · headline in tomorrow's
papers · kill that light it's so bright and you're
shining it right in my eyes |
| show me your secret
and tell me your name · catch me with your fizzy
smile · try to remember again and again ·
what it is that I recognise · don't ask me now
· when I need you I don't know how · to
believe in your advice · just this once I take
the dice |
| midnight so what's the
point of faking · for a kiss or a whisper you pull
out a desperate prize · hold tight onto daddy's
bracelet · make them pay for their chances ·
with money they don't think that's nice |
| show me your secret
and tell me your name · catch me with your fizzy
smile · try to remember again and again ·
what it is that I recognise · don't ask me now
· when I need you I don't know how · to
believe in your advice · just this once I take
the dice |
| show me your secret
and tell me your name · catch me with your fizzy
smile · try to remember again and again ·
what it is that I recognise · show me your secret
and tell me your name · catch me with your fizzy
smile · try to remember again and again ·
what it is that I recognise |
|
|
|
| why did you let me run
· when you knew I'd fall for the gaping hole ·
where your heart should be liar · couldn't cut
me deeper with a knife if you tried · just take
a look before you run off and hide at your victim arise
|
| clouds on your shoulder
· aren't they grazed by the afterglow ·
how quiet they gather when the storm is about to blow
|
| no don't look away ·
caught in the crossfire · and it ain't no wind
of change · I'm talking of crime and passion's
rage |
| summer of madness of
the undertow · dragged me up an alley for the blossoming
fire on a stranger's smile · bride of wire - how
disguise so easily cracked · saw your heart turn
spade · this orchid's turned to black |
| graze on your shoulder
· like the clouds in the afterglow · how
quiet they gather when the storm is about to blow |
| no don't look away ·
caught in the crossfire · and it ain't no wind
of change · I'm talking of crime and passion's
rage |
| way down by the shoulder
· in the haze of the afterglow · stranded
together and the storm is about to blow |
| no don't look away ·
caught in the crossfire · and it ain't no wind
of change · I'm talking of crime and passion ·
don't look away · caught in the crossfire ·
and it ain't no wind of change · I'm talking of
crime and passion |

|
| telegram force and ready
· I knew this was a big mistake · there's
a fine line drawing my senses together · and I
think it's about to break |
| if I listen close I
can hear them singers oh · voices in your body
coming through on the radio |
| the union of the snake
is on the climb · moving up it's gonna race it's
gonna break · through the borderline |
| nightshades on a warning
· give me strength at least give me a light ·
give me anything even sympathy · there's a chance
you could be right |
| if I listen close I
can hear them singers oh · voices in your body
coming through on the radio |
| the union of the snake
is on the climb · moving up it's gonna race it's
gonna break · through the borderline · the
union of the snake is on the climb · moving up
it's gonna race it's gonna break · through the
borderline |

|
| shackled
and raised for a shining crowd · they want you
to speak but the music is louder than all of their roar
· with the heat of the planet's core |
| but the shadows are
on your side · as soon as the lights go down ·
in the darkest place you can find · you belong
to the hands of the night |
| promises made with
a distant friend · truth should be known it can
only blend to a tune of its own · hey you'll never
hear that voice again · scandal in white on a tangled
vine · with everybody to say that you're having
the time of your life · when your life is on the
slide |
| but the shadows are
on your side · as soon as the lights go down ·
in the darkest place you can find · you belong
to the hands of the night · shadows are on your
side · as soon as the lights go down · in
the darkest place you can find · you belong to
the hands of the night |
| spinning a compass
to choose your way · you can run you can dive you
can stand and you can soar · whichever way you
can be sure |
| that the shadows are
on your side · as soon as the lights go down ·
in the darkest place you can find · you belong
to the hands of the night · shadows are on your
side · as soon as the lights go down · in
the darkest place you can find · you belong to
the hands of the night |
| shadows on your side
· the shadows are on your side · shadows
on your side · the shadows are on your side ·
shadows on your side · the shadows are on your
side |

| those words
are all remainders · echoes growing in the heart
of twilight · they lay back laughing at naivety's
star · awaken all those whispers · the dusty
shadow of a passing favour · I wouldn't say that
you were ruthless or right · I couldn't see from
so far |
| was I chasing after
rainbows · one thing for sure you never answered
when I called · and I wiped away the water from
my face · to look through the eyes of a stranger
· for rumours in the wake of such a lonely crowd
· trading in my shelter for danger · I'm
changing my name just as the sun goes down · in
the eyes of the stranger |
| can't tell the real
from reflection · when all these faces look the
same to me · in every city such a desolate dream
· some days are strange to number · some
say the seventh sounds a little bit stranger ·
a year of sunday's seems to have drifted right by ·
I could have sworn in one evening |
| and I'm not seized in
desperation · no steel reproaches on the table
from before · but I still can feel those splinters
of ice · I look through the eyes of a stranger
· for rumours in the wake of such a lonely crowd
· trading in my shelter for danger · I'm
changing my name just as the sun goes down · in
the eyes of the stranger |
| I must be chasing after
rainbows · one thing for sure you never answer
when I call · and I wipe away the water from my
face · to look through the eyes of a stranger ·
for rumours in the wake of such a lonely crowd ·
trading in my shelter for danger · I'm changing
my name just as the sun goes down · walking away
like a stranger · from rumours in the wake of such
a lonely crowd · trading in my shelter for danger
· I'm changing my name just as the sun goes down
· in the eyes of the stranger |
| in the eyes of the stranger
· in the eyes of the stranger |
|
|
|
| wise on a
birthday party · in a world full of surprising
fireworks · and sudden silence |
| lies on
a stranger's bed · the new day breaks like a speeding
train on an old friend · ever expected but never
knocking |
| holding your
own in a battered car · all night parties cocktail
bars and smile · when the butterfly escapes the
killing jar |
| sure eyes
awake before the dancing is over · wise or naked
in secret oktober |
| free fall
on a windy morning shore · nothing but a fading
track of footsteps · could prove that you'd ever
been there |
| spoken on a cotton cloud
· like the sound of gunshot taken by the wind ·
and lost in distant thunder |
| racing on a shining
plain · tomorrow you'll be content to watch as
the lightning plays along the wires · and you'll
wonder |
| sure eyes awake before
the dancing is over · wise or naked in secret oktober
|
| sure eyes awake before
the dancing is over · wise or naked in secret oktober

|
| MAKE ME SMILE (COME UP AND SEE ME) |
|
| you've done
it all · you've broken every code · and
pulled the rebel to the floor |
| you spoilt
the game · no matter what you say · only
metal what a bore |
| blue eyes
blue eyes · how come you tell so many lies ·
oh · come up and see me · make me smile
· oh · or do what you want running wild
|
| there's nothing
left · all gone and run away · maybe you'll
tarry for a while |
| it's just
a test · a game for us to play · win or
lose it's hard to smile |
| resist resist ·
it's from yourself that you have to hide · oh ·
so come up and see me · make me smile ·
oh · or do what you want running wild |
| there ain't no more
· you've taken everything · from my belief
in mother earth |
| how can you ignore my
faith in everything · 'cause I know what faith
is and what it's worth |
| away away · and
don't say maybe you'll try · oh · come up
and see me · make me smile · oh ·
or do what you want running wild |
| come up and see me ·
make me smile · oh · or do what you want
running wild |
