01. Gimme Your Love

Bet you're getting the wrong idea about me
Bet you're thinking there's more than the eye can see
I'll tell you something, then maybe again I won't
Now you see me
And who knows maybe you don't
Time after time, you had your chances
And you threw them away oh! no!
Don't waste my time,
I don't need the glory
That's all I want to say

Gimme your love
You know what it does to me
Drives me crazy, ain't telling no lies
Gimme your love
With you I feel satisfied
When you're by my side
I tell you no lies

It's on the line, can't think about nothing else
Suits me fine, 'cos I know we're two of a kind
To trust myself is something I just can't do
So how the hell girl am I gonna trust you
Night after night two crazy people
Getting high on their love, crazy love
Don't stop me now,
I got a one way ticket
Straight through your heart oh! no!

Bet you're getting the wrong idea about me
Bet you're thinking there's more than the eye can see
You should talk, 'cause I know quite a bit about you
Don't look so worried
Just do what we both wanna do
'Cause time after time, you had your chances
And you threw away all away!
You cut it so fine with your advances honey
Now I know just what to say

02. Here Today-Gone Tomorrow

Such a strange obsession coming over me
Seems like I can't face that stark reality.
Need to find the answer
Need to find a way
I don't know what I'm doing here
From day to day
As far as I can see now
The reason's very clear
Is there nothing left for me

Here today, gone tomorrow
I hear you say
No more joy only sorrow, no other way
Here today you're gone tomorrow
I hear you say

One last time before you walk away
Bent on self destruction
I can feel the pain
This advice you've given me
Is all in vain
As far as I can see now
The reason's very clear
Is there nothing left for me

Did I hear you whisper...
Almost reached that point now
The point of no return
Getting closer to that edge, ooh I'll never learn
As far as I can see now
The reason's very clear
Is there nothing left for me

03. Don't Stop Me Now

I can't be sure but did I get it right
Yeah! You're watching me
I think you should begin
Start bringing out the man
Let's share the mystery
Can it be you're just playing a little game
I'll never be the same again
Never had a feeling such as this
Lord I'm going overboard
You're like a nuclear division
Coming at me from all sides
About to explode
Can it be you're just leading me astray
I can't believe the things you say
Your innocence your little school girl eyes
Take me to your paradise

Don't stop me now
You might ruin everything
Don't stop me now
The animal is free again

Night time finds me in the danger zone
My defenses are down
Captured by your every move I'm lost
Gotta get myself on course
I can feel the silence coming through
I wanna be a part of you
Waiting for that moment of surprise
Tonight there'll be no compromise

Lights are flashing all around me now
It's all systems go
Release yourself just let your feelings show
Experience can make you grow
Can it be you've got something on your mind
I'd do anything to find
Imagination running wild in me
Ragin' now in ecstasy

04. No Time For Losers

The past is over the future's here
Get drunk on memories of yesteryear
We're gonna stop!
Our whole existence computerized
Yet still we stand up and we criticize
We're gonna stop!

No time for losers
Stop hiding in the shadows, no time to lose
No time for losers
Look for the things that matter
No time to lose

The life we're living takes precedent
We don't ask for permission
We don't need your consent
We're gonna stop!

on't forget to smile
Children need a happy face
To make it all worthwhile
We'll change this kinda lifestyle
Bring out the best in me
Bring out the best in you
We never take time for little things
How quick we forget our romancing
We're not gonna stop
The past is over, the future's here
We're all drunk on memories of yesteryear

05. Follow The Night

Funny you understand so much
Where do you always find the time
The explanations I found
Are all based on solid ground
Can nobody get inside
I tried but I can't find
There must be a door somewhere
All I need is the key and I'm there
Better to leave it alone
Some things you do disturb me
Better to weather the storm
My thoughts so deep I cannot see

Follow the night, follow your dreams
Follow the signs
And all the things you've seen
Follow the night

Yeah' Find your fantasy
Follow the road that leads you straight to me
Confusion inside your head
You never know where to turn
Look for the space instead
Wonder how you can carry on
Patience is a lonely word
We never can have enough
The problems you can't ignore
Especially from the start
Better to leave it alone
Some things you do disturb me
Better to weather the storm
My thoughts so deep I cannot see

Never, never a moment lost
While the work is done
Time flies quickly past
Even for the most eager ones
The pain we must endure
It's not an easy task
To end what you're looking for
You simply have to ask

06. Get Out

She said I come from a broken home
Most of my life, I've been so all alone
Can't give you the love you need
That's the way it's got to be
You never know if time will change
You'll have to wait and see
I'm working hard just to get some money
This kind of job you can't do in a hurry
So much paid when the day is through
I'm not quite sure if I can spend it with you

Get out! get out! get out!
You're not welcome here
Get out! get out! get out!
Am I making myself clear

Like a dog without a bone
I was trying to hide my shame
Dignity a fading memory, only got myself to blame
How many times and how many changes
Keep asking myself why
I'm working hard just to get some money
This kind of job you can't do in a hurry
So much pain when the day is through
I'm not quite sure if I can spend it with you

So tired I feel I'm dead
Can't remember what I had
Rejection I don't want to know
But you always let it show
The kind of loving you are trying to sell me
In no kind of love at all

07. Love Is Not A Game

You feel it and I feel it
There's no new words to say
You're changing, rearranging
There's a whole new game to play
But this time I think I've lost
Only memories of the past
Tell me where did I go wrong
Was it you all along

Love is not a game
The stakes are high, you're playing with fire
Love is not a game
Knock over the pieces and start it again

You know it 'cos you show it
You should never hide it from me
I'm trying, really trying
To be what you want me to be
These emotions are killing me
I can't let go are you crazy
Thought the pleasure had just begun
Look what we have become

08. Time

I was just another fool
Breaking everybody's rules
Same mistake as the last time
Everything was easier
I didn't have to worry no
Now it's all gone
Suddenly I find myself
Can't it be that I must find my way
What more can I say
And so it goes
Oh! Nothing will be clear anymore

Time and there's so much left to say
Still I can't find the words
When you need just one more day
Time and there's so much left to say

But I just can't find the time
So many reasons to despair
I needed help but no one was there
I should have known I should have known
What was I supposed to do
The only one to understand me now was you
But I never knew
And so it goes
Oh! now nothing will be clear anymore

09. I Don't Wanna Lose

Never thought that it could be
This kind of life for you and me
If you think you love someone else
Then show me the man, maybe I'll understand
'Cos I've done all I can
So I can't understand
I remember what we had going
Over and over on moonlit nights
Lord I still feel the passion flowing
Making a fool of me
What about those expensive places
How you danced, leaving me all alone
Yeah! I still remember those faces
Making a fool of me
Taking a chance on a fool like me
Was it all in the name of liberty
Now you know there's no easy way out
Baby! not this time

I don't wanna lose, such tears of emotion
I don't wanna lose, in all this commotion
You're making a fool out of me
Your guilt and your strange behavior
You should know you can't hide it from me
Yet still I could kill or die for
Anything you'd ask of me
Taking a chance on a fool like me
Was it all in the name of liberty
Now you know there's no easy way out
Baby! not this time

10. Rock 'Til You're Crazy

We must stand up and be counted
Backs against the wall
Now my finger is pointed
At you all
Rock'n rollin!
Like never before
It's you that I'm calling
More and more
We have the weapons, to make the music
We are controllers of the atmosphere
Don't need no star wars, just metal guitars
To blast our way in here

Rock 'till you're crazy
You scream and shout for more
Rock 'till you're crazy
It's what we're looking for

When I make my connection
And the power it flows from one
To the other, How it grows
We have the weapons, to make the music
We are controllers of the atmosphere
Don't need no star wars, just metal guitars
To blast our way in here
Say she's some kinda lunatic
She's destroying my brain
But I'd never change her
For another name
Over and over, relentlessly hard
Oh! stronger and stronger
It must be heard
He have the weapons, to make the music
We are controllers of the atmosphere
Don't need no star wars, no cruise, no polaris
To blast our way in here
