Out in the desert
Where the lights never fade
We had to stop for the night
Walked down the strip
Temptation all around
Oh god how could I resist

I always take a chance
And roll the dice
Cuz all we do
Is just a game

So many ways-To win or to lose
We've got nothing-Nothing to lose
So many ways-To win or to lose
We keep on tryin'-That's what we choose

We made our way
Back to the Hollywood-sign
Where dreams and hopes unite
Where angels die
And stars are risin' high
Where only the best survive

I always take a chance
And roll the dice
Cuz all we do
Is just a game

So many ways - To win or to lose
We've got nothing - Nothing to lose
So many ways - To win or to lose
We keep on walkin' - The way that we choose

More than seven years went by
Since you left the scene
Time enough to think about
What you've done to me

Yesterday I heard you're back
Back in town again
You asked my friends where I live
If my number's still the same

Thinkin' of the times we used to spend
All those little lies you used to tell

Don't try to call me anymore
I don't need your lies
Don't try to call me anymore
Little devil in disguise

I was really enslaved by you
Led by your command
Could not read between the lines
No matter what you said

Now that seems so long ago
Girl I changed my ways
You got your life and I got mine
There's nothin' left to say

Thinkin' of the times we used to spend
Thinkin' of the crap you used to tell

Don't try to call me anymore...

I'm just a lonely boy and I play
With my red kite in the sky
I hold the string in both of my hands
Try to teach it to fly

But then the wind becomes much stronger
And breaks my dream in two
I see the light at the end of the tunnel
And I'm running back to you

Now I'm awake
With the eyes of a stranger
And I'm awake
Out of my world of danger

I'm looking 'round in our bedroom
What the hell is going on
I see an orange dressed foreign man
Hanging on his telephone

But then a voice tries to tell me
What's going on tonight
I had a fit a mental blackout
I'll say goodbye to my red kite

Mirror mirror tell me what you see
You've known that guy
For maybe fifteen years
You've seen him laugh
You've seen him cry
You've seen him kiss
Love and life goodbye

Now ain't it time to make a change
Ain't it better than to go insane
Must I fight reality
To be the man I really wanna be

Now in my dreams I've seen
A place where I will go
To heal my heart and free
My soul and make me whole
That's where I belong

Desert star - be my guide
Out of town into a new day's light
Desert rain - wash away
Sins and sorrow - make me feel okay

Many nights and bloody many days
I followed the rules before I lost my way
Getting up and working really hard
Always dreaming of a brand new start

Now in my dreams...

Desert star - be my guide
Out of town into a new day's light
Desert rain - wash away
Sins and sorrow - make me feel okay

Look at the children
And see those hopeful eyes
Look at your brother
A friend for all your life

All these people here around me
I'm lovin' more and more
Now I understand what we're livin' for

Like an eagle in the sky
Spread my wings and fly
And I'm sailin' on the wind
My eyes won't miss a thing
And life begins

Look at the valleys
Flowers everywhere
Look at the mountains
So proud they're standing there

All those precious real creations
I've never seen before
Now I understand what we're livin' for

Like an eagle in the sky
Spread my wings and fly
And I'm sailin' on the wind
My eyes won't miss a thing

Like an eagle in the sky
Spread my wings and fly
And I'm ridin' on the wind
And a new life begins

When the rain is fallin'
And the end is not in sight
I just spread my wings and fly again
To the rainbow in the sky

We all live on this planet
Giant gentle and blue
We breathe and walk and wonder
A place for me and you

Why is it that I wake up
To a new day's light
And how come the starlight
Shines so bright tonight

Tell me bout that wonder
How long can it last
The sun we're living under
Is burning much too fast

We've come a long way searching
For what we think is true
Big machines and bigger dreams
Big illusions too

Every beast we've mastered
Every sea we've sailed
Every fortress conquered
Yet I think we failed

Tell me bout that wonder
How long can it last
The sun we're living under
Is burning much too fast
Tell me bout that wonder...

Sammy Jo was an ordinary girl
Had ordinary dreams and hopes
And a proper place to stay
What made her crack nobody really knows
When she ran away from home
She threw it all away

Oh see the rainbow there
Oh colours everywhere

I see those faces
Showing all those traces
Of a million tears
Cried over long lost years
Glitter and glory
It's the same old
Things ain't what they seem
And you can't live on dreams
Do you know what I mean

Jamie Lee was an ordinary guy
Lived an ordinary life
In only black and white
Why he changed his mind nobody knows
Now he roams the streets at night
Always hiding from the light

Oh see the rainbow there
Oh colours everywhere

I see those faces...

I see your face
And feel your warm embrace
And I have no fear
As long as you are there
Glitter and glory
Yeah I know that story
But I know what's true
And I'll hang on to you

As I see your face
And feel your warm embrace
I know what's true
And I'll hang on to you
Hanging on to you

I see those faces...

Was all by myself in never never land
Searching my soul in the desert sand

Memories of the past
Trying to show me the way
But I was too blind to see
And much too afraid

Those were the days
When I was going nowhere
Those were the days
When I had nothing to share

Sitting in the park listening to the sound
Of dreamtime dreams that I never found

Like a hunted wolf on the run
I fled from myself
Running after the sun
Not even thinking twice - don't think twice

Those were the days...

Sitting in the park listening to the sound
Of dreamtime dreams and I'm still around

Memories of the past
Show me the way
Then with my open heart
I'm not afraid - not afraid

Gone are the days
When I was going nowhere
Long gone the days
When I had nothing to share

'Cause nowadays
I am going somewhere
And nowadays
I've got something to share

Just like a little boy
Who wants to smash his toys
I pushed it all to the limit
I felt like paralyzed
Could not receive your signs
Just had no feeling for nothing

Now there's a fire
Burnin' in my eyes
I realize
How much I missed that spice

I'm comin' back
Grabbin' my guitar
So here I am
We try a brand new start

Because that's
All that I want
All that I need
And I will be screamin' again

So many times I tried
The shore was out of sight
Thought I'd be swimmin' forever
But if you keep your dreams
And fight against the stream
Nothin' can stop you whatever

And there's a fire
Burnin' in my eyes
I realize
How much I missed that spice

And now I' m back
Grabbin' my guitar
So here I am
We try a brand new start

Because that's.....

Our love is a wild game
Burning like a hot flame
N' when I touch your skin that's my sin
'Cause my family is waitin' for me

Late at night I'm driving home
Looking for an alibi
Asking myself what I should do
When I hear it again

When the Phone rings twice
You set my heart on fire
When the phone rings twice
Our sign of desire

My heart beats faster
That's my disaster
Like a yo-yo on a string when you ring
I come under your control

Once again I'm driving home
The door is closed and I'm alone
Asking myself what I should do
I'm driving back to you

When the Phone rings twice
You set my heart on fire
When the phone rings twice
Our sign of desire
When the Phone rings twice...

I've been on the run
Always on the move
Travelled all around the globe
With nothing left to lose

I've been high and low
Floating with the tide
Many times I've loved and lost
And many times I've cried

Sometimes I wished
I had somewhere to go
Someone to love after all
But I know...

All my money
Can't buy me love
All my money
Is not enough
To buy me love

I've seen paradise
Knocking on it's doors
Lovely voices answering
We're temporarily closed

I've heard angels sing
And I've seen fairies dance
Many times I've sold my soul
For a bitter-sweet romance

Sometimes I wished
I had somewhere to go
Someone to love after all
But I know...

All my money
Can't buy me love
All my money
Is not enough
To buy me love

Where we used to play as kids
Didn't think about tomorrow
Didn't care about a thing

But my smilin' turned to cryin'
All those struggles in my head
Oh if I could only lie there
In the comfort of my bed

Tell me why I feel this way
I'll never understand
But there's one thing I know for sure
I want to live again

Time - it takes a little time
To ease the pain inside
To wash my tears away
Time - it takes a little time
Until the ache subsides
Until I smile again like a child

Little circles on the water
From the tears I hide behind
See my lifeless face reflecting
And can't believe it's mine

Where's the joy I felt before
The glowing in my eyes
I gotta get it back again
And find some peace of mind

Time it takes a little time.....
