01. Wild Child

Don't hear the phone that rings
I know the fever's coming
God knows what life will bring
This Sunday morning (Sunday Morning) without a warning

Don't hear the neighbour scream
He thinks my house is burning
Well, life is good to me
This Sunday morning (yeah)

She's a wild child
And her l-l-love turns a man insane
She's a wild child
And the love she makes rocks the mind off my brain

Don't hear the backdoor crack
Don't see the cops are coming back
It's burnin' in my bed
This Sunday morning (yeah)

She's a wild child (she's a wild child)
And her l-l-love turns a man insane
She's a wild child (she's a wild child)
And the love she makes rocks the mind off my brain

She's on fire
She's on fire
She's on fire

She's a wild child
And her l-l-love turns a man insane
She's a wild child
And the love she makes rocks the mind off my brain

She's a wild child (she's a wild child)
And her l-l-love turns a man insane
She's a wild child (she's a wild child)
And the love she makes rocks the mind off my brain

She's a wild child
She's a wild child

Yeah

She's a wild child (she's a wild child)
And her l-l-love turns a man insane
She's a wild child (she's a wild child)
And the love she makes rocks the mind off my brain

02. But The Best For You

Let me tell you something

In the darkness of the room
I'm leaning back against the wall
Try to walk on broken glass
A cut so deep just hurts so bad

I remember what you said
Tears were rollin' down your face
And after all's been said and done
You're a woman, I'm a man
Could I turn back the time again

You must know by now
I won't let you down
Whatever comes along the way
Don't you agree that one thing is true
I'm not the best, but the best for you

And I step outside the door (step outside the door)
Blinded by a million lights
In the valley of the fools (in the valley of the fools)
Another day went by so fast
What in the world will ever last

You must know by now
I won't let you down
Whatever comes along the way
Don't you agree that one thing is true
I'm not the best, but the best for you

There's nothin' else that we have got
But our love is like a rock
Standing up against the tide

There's nothin' else that we have got
But our love is like a rock
Standing up against the tide

You must know by now
I won't let you down
Whatever comes along the way
Don't you agree that one thing is true
I'm not the best, but the best for you

You must know by now
I won't let you down
Whatever comes along the way
Don't you agree that one thing is true
I'm not the best, but the best for you

Don't you agree that one thing is true
I'm not the best, but the best for you
I'm not the best, but the best for you
I'm not the best, but the best for you

03. Does Anyone Know

Is this world out of control
Say what is right what is wrong
Do I know this world at all
I think I do but then I don't
I'm confused by what I see
I try to understand
But it makes no sense at all
I'm confused by what I feel
I thought that our love
Was something that is real

Does anyone know
The truth we're looking for
Can't find it anymore
Does anyone know
How to make me feel
For something that is real

So many things that I recall
When we were young just flying high
Can we turn our fate at all
I wish we could say don't you cry
I'm confused by what I hear
Girl it seems to me
We're losing after all
I'm confused by what I feel
I thought that our love
Was something that is real

Does anyone know
The truth we're looking for
Can't find it anymore
Does anyone know
How to make me feel
For something that is real

Another day has just begun
Life goes on there's no return
How can I trust anyone
When honesty is such a dirty word

Does anyone know
The truth we're looking for
Can't find it anymore
Does anyone know
How to make me feel
For something that is real

Does anyone know
The truth we're looking for
Can't find it anymore
Does anyone know
How to make me feel
For something that is real

Yeah

04. Stone In My Shoe

I keep on dancin' on the roof
Try not to fall, stay in the groove
A step too far. I'm out of place
Life beats you up some of these days
Just like a whisper there's a voice
Inside of me
It's sayin' you ain't got a choice
Well, can't you see

Ooh, when your world comes tumbling down
Ooh, you better find a way around

I keep on walkin' in the clouds
Find out what life is all about
I keep on runnin' away from here
To learn the grass ain't greener there
Just like a whisper there's a voice
Inside of me
It's sayin' you ain't got no choice
As you can see

Ooh, when your world comes tumbling down
Ooh, you better find a way around
Ooh, cause no one else but you
Ooh, can find the stone inside your shoe

Ooh, when your world comes tumbling down
Ooh, you better find a way around
Ooh, cause no one else but you
Ooh, can find the stone inside your shoe

Inside your shoe
Inside your shoe
Inside your shoe
Yeah

Keep rockin' in the street
Keep landing on my feet
Keep runnin' on and on
Still play my favorite blond
Keep rockin' mother earth
Just all around the world
These days mean safer sex
Get my survival pack
My orgasm isn't faked
Ooh Lord, I need a break
And what's annoying, too
Is that damn thing in my shoe
Ooh, there is a stone in my shoe

05. Soul Behind The Face

Would you care for me if I was deaf and blind
Would you hear my voice if I was always quiet
Would you hold my hand if I was going to fall
Would you cry for me would you know my name at all

Would you be there if I was on the ground
Would you be my friend if no one was around
Would you hold me close if I was in the cold
Would you pray for me would you know my name at all

Would you care would you be there
For the soul behind the face
Would you love me for what I am

Would you care would you be there
For the soul behind the face
Would you love me for what I am

Would you care would you be there
For the soul behind the face
Would you love me for what I am

Would you care would you be there
For the soul behind the face
Would you love me for what I am

Would you love me for what I am
Would you love me for what I am
Would you love me for what I am

06. Girl (I Wanna Be With You)

Do do do do
Do do do do

Away for a long time but never gone
So many good times that I recall
Forgive me that I've been kind of blind
I've been running away most of my life

Girl, I wanna be with you
It's no one else it's only you
Oh, girl I wanna stay with you
With no one else just with you

I was lost for a long time couldn't find myself
The cry for love was the cry for help
Forgive me that I've been so untrue
The one who saved me's been always you (yeah)

Girl, I wanna be with you
It's no one else it's only you
Oh, girl I wanna stay with you
With no one else just with you
With no one else just with you

Life's been dancin' on a razorblade
I had my share of love and hate
Well,after all I found myself
Cause it's you who makes me live
It's only you who can forgive

Away for a long time but never gone
Sometimes life just takes the long way home
You're still the one I'm dreamin' of
Cause when your heart is talkin' you know it's love

Oh, girl, I wanna be with you
It's no one else it's only you
Oh, girl I wanna stay with you
With no one else just with you

Oh, girl, I wanna be with you
It's no one else it's only you
Oh, girl I wanna stay with you
With no one else just with you
With no one else just with you

07. When You Came Into My Life

You give me your smile
A piece of your heart
You give me the feel I've been looking for
You give me your soul
Your innocent love
You are the one I've been waiting for
I've been waiting for

We're lost in a kiss
A moment in time
Forever young
Just forever, just forever in love

When you came into my life
It took my breath away
Cause your love has found it's way
To my heart

Ooh, ahh
Ooh, ahh

You make me dream
By the look in your eyes
You give me the feel, I've been longing for
I wanna give you my soul
All my life
Cause you are the one I've been waiting for
I've been waiting for so long

When you came into my life
It took my breath away
And the world stopped turnin' round
For your love
When you came into my life
It took my breath away
Cause your love has found it's way
To my heart
Into my heart

Just forever in love

When you came into my life
It took my breath away
And the world stopped turnin' round
For your love
When you came into my life
It took my breath away
Cause your love has found it's way
To my heart
When you came into my life

When you came into my life
It took my breath away
And the world stopped turnin' round
For your love
When you came into my life
It took my breath away
Cause your love has found it's way
To my heart

08. Where The River Flows

Under suburban skies
Where life is bleeding
Where concrete skies are grey
There's plenty of room for dreaming

I still keep coming here
Follow those traces
I travel back in time
Remember all those places
Feels like I never left
The house's still standing
Down by the river where
The dreams are never ending

You find me
You find me
You find me by the river
You find me
You find me
You find me where the river flows

Under the silent moon
This industrial city
Is heartland even though
Life's been not that pretty
I still keep coming here
To that old river
To find my roots just where
The future lives forever

You find me
You find me
You find me by the river
You find me
You find me
You find me, you can find me

By the river where dreams will never die
By the river under suburban skies

You find me
You find me
You find me by the river
You find me
You find me
You find me where the river flows

By the river where dreams have never died
By the river I look through children's eyes

You find me
You find me
You find me by the river
You find me
You find me
You find me where the river flows

You find me
You find me
You find me by the river
You find me
You find me
You find me where the river flows

Where the river flows
Where the river flows
Where the river flows

09. Time Will Call Your Name

They're days that make you fly
They're days you wanna cry
Sometimes the walls come tumbling down
They're moments in the dark
When pain just floods your heart
And you surrender one more time

Just take a walk out in the rain
With every drop that falls
You know the sun will shine again

They're days you're naturally high
They're days you wanna die
Sometimes your world goes down in flames
They're moments deep in love
But when it breaks your heart
You just surrender one more time

Just take a walk out in the rain
With every step you make
You learn that life means constant change

Tomorrow's all that counts
As life goes round 'n round
You gotta draw the line
Goodbye yesterday
Tomorrow's all that counts
As life goes round 'n round
And if you keep the faith
Time will call your name

Take a walk out in the rain
With every breath you take
You feel your soul is free again

Tomorrow's all that counts
As life goes round 'n round
You gotta draw the line
Goodbye yesterday
Tomorrow's all that counts
As life goes round 'n round
And if you keep the faith
Time will call your name
Tomorrow's all that counts
As life goes round 'n round
You gotta draw the line
Goodbye yesterday
Tomorrow's all that counts
As life goes round 'n round
And if you keep the faith
Time will call your name

10. You And I

I lose control because of you babe
I lose control when you look at me like this
There's something in your eyes that is saying tonight
I'm not a child anymore, life has opened the door
To a new exciting life

I lose control when I'm close to you babe
I lose control don't look at me like this
There's something in your eyes, is this love at first sight
Like a flower that grows, life just wants you to know
All the secrets of life

It's all written down in your lifelines
It's written down inside your heart

You and I just have a dream
To find our love a place, where we can hide away
You and I were just made
To love each other now, forever and a day

I lose control because of you babe
I lose control don't look at me like this
There's something in your eyes that is saying tonight
I'm so curious for more just like never before
In my innocent life

It's all written down in your lifelines
It's written down inside your heart

You and I just have a dream
To find our love a place, where we can hide away
You and I were just made
To love each other now, forever and a day

Time stands still when the days of innocence
Are falling for the night
I love you girl I always will
I swear I'm there for you
Till the day I die

You and I just have a dream
To find our love a place, where we can hide away
You and I were just made
To love each other now, forever and a day

...

11. Are You The One?

Another rainy morning
People rushing by
My head is still in the clouds
I dream with open eyes
Suddenly out of nowhere
She came into my life
Like we know each other
For quite a while

In the sound of silence
Time is standing still
There's some kind of bond between us
That's givin' me the chill
Do you really wonder
That we can burn the sky
It's written a thousand years ago
In the book of life

Are you the one that God had made for me
Are you the one who's always in my dreams
The one who keeps me goin'
When I can't go on
The one that I've been waiting for
For so long

Oh, yeah

Suddenly out of nowhere
She came into my life

Are you the one that God had made for me
Are you the one who's always in my dreams

Are you the one that God had made for me
Are you the one who's mine eternally
The one who keeps me dreamin'
When I'm sad and tired
Who gives my life a meaning
Till the day I die

Are you the one
Are you the one

12. She's Knocking At My Door

She's knocking at my door
But I won't let her out no more

I want a piece of that pie
She's driving me completely wild
She's giving me a private dance
She's playing with my confidence

The way she's coming down the stairs
Makes me surrender just right there
This girl is out of this world
Heaven must be a place on earth

She's knocking at my door
That little angel knows the score
She's knocking at my door
But I won't let her out no more

She's like a shot of adrenaline
She made me fly with broken wings
With nothing but the radio on
Her body is the song I want

She's knocking at my door
That little angel knows the score
She's knocking at my door
But I won't let her out no more

The light is on but no one's home tonight
We lock the door, we turn the key
And throw it right outside
Come on and set me free

If you had candy once before
For you keep coming back for more
She's got the sweetest touch of all
The longest legs that I recall

Before she leaves she turns around
The elevator takes her down
She says oh well the city rocks
I go to sleep but then it knocks

She's knocking at my door
That little angel knows the score
She's knocking at my door
But I won't let her out no more

...
