Cool, cool, Innocence
Like an angel blowing kisses from the sky Cool, cool, Innocence In a way that takes my breath away, no lie Pure and white as the driven snow It's a sin, I know Cool, cool, Innocence Like an answered prayer, put my thoughts to shame Cool, cool, Innocence Virgin, untouched animal you can never tame Can't believe my lyin' eyes No matter how I try Beauty, surround me, release me, astound me Innocence, Decadence, Innocence Breaks me down. Cool, cool, Innocence I can taste the sweet surrender on her lips Cold, hard, Decadence She's a lonely face that launched a thousand ships Pure and white as the driven snow Well, she don't know The wicked ways of the world have not found her Young, restless heart, blind to darkness Around her Cool, cool, Innocence, Cool, cool, Innocence, Cool, cool, Innocence. 03. True Believer
Every day about this time
I lose my reason and my rhyme, Everything around me's getting clearer. Season's changing quickly, My attitude is strictly here and now The time is getting nearer. But it's all right now To run along with me Maybe I'll make you see. I'm a true believer, A True Believer, baby Any time or any place at all. No matter what you heard before You never know just what's in store Until you've found the road you're taking. But even now I'm killing time, Believing you were only mine, I guess, That rules were made for breaking. Maybe time will tell If you learned your lessons well. So, have some faith in me. I'm a true believe, A True Believer, baby, Any time or any place at all. I'm a true believer A True Believer, baby Any time or any place at all. Then in your sleep I saw you crying. But I knew, those tears were not for me. But it's all right now To ride along with me. Maybe I'll make you see. I'm a true believer A True Believer, baby. Any time or any place at all I'm a true believer A True Believer, baby, Any time or any place I turn around and I see your face Any time or any place at all True Believer, True Believer, True Believer. 04. Body Double
What you see is what you get
The flavor stays the same. Live a life of fantasy Or lead a life of shame. One goes here, one goes there Illusion they create I'll bet a million dollars you can't differentiate. They'll lead you into the fire. Hot, hot. Which one's the better liar? Body Double Mirror, mirror on the wall don't show me any lies They can't get it wrong, no matter just how hard they try. Twice as fun as anyone Their trick's a treat for me. I can't get enough of that split personality. Teach me how you fooled the world again Tell me how to make this game of love begin. Show me differences that only I can tell. Two of a kind Only one in my mind Body Double, Hot, hot Body Double, Hot, hot Which is which and who is who It's all the same to me Both completely different with the same identity Back and forth for hours, Up and down and in between Something I can deal with doing single-handedly Teach me how you fooled the world again Tell me how to make this game of love begin. Show me differences that only I can tell. Two of a kind, Only one in my mind Body Double, Hot, hot Double all your pleasure while they double all the fun. Bending over backwards as you kiss the other one Who's the girl you fell in love with? Does she feel the same? When the party's over baby, I'm so glad you came. Teach me how you fooled the world again Tell me how to make this game of love begin. Show me differences that only I can tell. Two of a kind, Only one in my mind I'm still trying to find out Which one had been mine. Body Double, Hot, hot Body Double, Hot, hot Body Double, Body Double 05. Living In The Grey
Now when your blue skies turn to grey
And your eyes still turn away It's the time to let it go Out of the dark will shine a light Everything's in black and white 'Til you let your spirit grow. Stars would shine above you So everybody loved you So why'd you go and throw it all away? The Times, they are a-changing My life is rearranging I'm living in the grey, yeah. Breathing with a reason The everlasting season I'm living in the grey, yeah. So many years until today Lost, but now you've found the way An open mind can open eyes So now you're open to the pain Sitting naked in the rain Well, I will dry the tears you cry. Angels must have sent you Coz everybody meant to give you time But then you slipped away. The Times, they are a-changing My life is rearranging I'm living in the grey, yeah. Breathing with a reason The everlasting season I'm living in the grey, yeah. Stars would shine above you So everybody loved you So why'd you go and throw it all away. The Times, they are a-changing My life is rearranging I'm living in the grey, yeah. Breathing with a reason The everlasting season I'm living in the grey, yeah. The Times, they are a-changing My life is rearranging I'm living in the grey, yeah. Breathing with a reason The everlasting season I'm living in the grey, yeah, yeah, yeah. 07. Dyin' To Live
I never looked behind me
Never saw the shadows smile Never watched the red light warning All I wanted was to be in touch with you. Took a chance on inner healing. Said it was the way to go Find a way to make you happy Can't do it, never could but what a show Oh, no. I look to you, you look to me It's all the same, just one big game You say it's me, I say it's you You touched my love, with Shades of Blue But maybe now When you lose control You'll see what I could give, Trapped inside your heart, I'm dyin' to live. One man without a mission Like an eagle, flying slow I wanted to kiss the blue sky, But all the clouds were hanging far too low. And then one day, I looked away, Into the air, the Lord was there. He broke the sky, the sun flew by, I died for you, Shades of Blue. But maybe now When you lose control You'll see what I could give, Trapped inside your heart, I'm dyin' to live. And if the moon is bright The stars would all kiss you, The colors of my heart Are Shades of Blue. But maybe now When you lose control You'll see what I could give, Trapped inside your heart, I'm dyin' to live. When you lose control You'll see what I could give, Trapped inside your heart, I'm dyin' to live, dyin' to live. Dyin' to live. 08. Mercy
I can't seem to find the words to say the things I want to
Say to you, I must be burnin' out. One night, a long, long time ago, My mother told me I should go to you, With all my thoughts and dreams. Please, please tell me, What you gonna do, when every princess comes to you singin'? Lord have mercy, mercy on my soul, Please have mercy, salvation for my soul. It's just that I can't justify How you can let them do the things they do. Well, I'd let them have it good. They laugh and totally forget, That all creation is because of you, How do you do such things? Please, please tell me, What you gonna do when all the losers cling to you, singin'? Lord have mercy, mercy on my soul, Please have mercy, salvation and some mercy, mercy, mercy Mercy on my soul. Lord have mercy, mercy on my soul, Please have mercy, salvation for my soul. Lord have mercy, mercy on my soul, Please have mercy, salvation and some mercy, mercy, mercy, Mercy on my soul. 09. The Promised Land
Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep. And every moment I'm awake I pray the Lord my soul to take. Now as I walk down this winding road, I need you to lighten the load. Hey, now, take my hand, I'll lead you to the Promised Land. One cold December, So long ago, We watched the snow cling to the trees. Your lips were so warm As you kissed my hand We would have sailed the seven seas. But when you walked away, Said you could not stay, And love lay dying like a wounded dove. But if you come back now, I will take your hand And lead you to the Promised Land. Are you feeling lonely? Do you need a friend? Well, is the pain too much to stand? The seeds of love Are sown inside And the memories of our lives will guide our hand. So as you fly away I will sing the day And meet you in the Promised Land. Take my hand to the Promised Land. But when you walked away, Said you could not stay, And love lay bleeding like a wounded dove. But if it needs to be Then I will set you free. And meet you in the Promised Land. Take my hand to the Promised Land. Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep. And every moment I'm awake I pray the Lord your soul to take 10. No Matter What
No matter what you are
I will always be with you Doesn't matter what you do girl Ooh girl, with you No matter what you do I will always be around Won't you tell me what you've found girl ? Ooh girl, won't you ? Knock down the old grey wall Be a part of it all. Nothing to say, nothing to see, nothing to do If you would give me all I would you give it to you. Nothing would be, nothing would be, nothing would be No matter where you go There will always be a place Can't you see it in my face, girl ? Ooh girl want you Knock down the old grey wall Be a part of it all. Nothing to say, nothing to see, nothing to do If you would give me all I would you give it to you. Nothing would be, nothing would be, nothing would be No matter what you are I will always be with you Doesn't matter what you do girl Ooh girl, with you No matter what you do I will always be around Won't you tell me what you've found girl ? Ooh girl, won't you ? Ooh girl You girl Want you 11. She's My Salvation
I can move the mountains on a clear day,
But sometimes they can crash into the sea. Look around, choose your poison. Otherwise, you'll have no choice in living Your life the way it's mean to be. But one more believer is all that we need. The scars on our knees is the proof that we bleed. But I know, oh, I know Where to go Oh, cuz she's my salvation When the world gets oh so lonely I escape. She's my salvation. One lover's pain is another man's relief. But I know, oh, I know This feeling's got to go. When the time is right, you'll see a new way. The road is paved with gold and leads you home again. Bad news most everyday, Wonder why I run away Got to find a sanctuary. Find your own peace in the rules that you make. Believin' your eyes is the first big mistake. But I know, oh, I know Where to go. Oh, cuz she's my salvation When the world gets oh so lonely I escape. Oh, now, she's my salvation. One lover's pain is another man's relief. But I know, oh, I know This feeling's got to go. Now she's my salvation When the world gets oh so lonely I escape. Oh, now she's my inspiration Unspoken lies, another fool's belief. But I know, oh, I know This feeling's got to go. She's my Salvation, She's my Salvation She's my Salvation, She's my Salvation The first big mistake is letting The things around you get you down. Find salvation in something or someone And make that your sanctuary. Unless you do this, you're lost. |
