BREAKIN DOWN THE WALLS

(P. Bates)

Talk is cheap, you just can't pay
For all the hurt your threw my way
Oh, no -- Oh, no
Love is blind, but I can see
You're trying to make a fool of me
I know -- I know.

Sometimes it feels just like I'm running on ice
Might slip and slide girl, but you won't hurt me twice.

Chorus:
(No matter what you say)
You'll never stop me
Breaking down the walls around your heart
(No matter what you do)
You just can't stop me
Breaking down the walls around your heart.

Love is passion, love is pain
The heat is on, we're all insane
I know -- I know
Life is bitter, life is sweet
You just can't ever admit defeat
Oh, no -- Oh, no.

Sometimes it feels like we've been fighting too long
You can't be right to make me feel so wrong
Oh, no.

(Chorus)

Did you ever feel like superman?
Got the world in your hands
But you never can
Seem to break down the walls.

Did you ever feel like a drowning man?
Got your life in your hands
But you never can
Seem to break down the walls.

Sometimes I feel just like I'm running on ice
Might slip and slide girl, but you won't hurt me twice.

(Chorus)

(Chorus)

Breaking down the walls
Breaking, I'll keep
Breaking down the walls around your heart.


POWER OF A MILLION LIGHTS

(E. Troyer) Titulo por P. Bates

I hear your voice close on the phone
But I know you're far away
I've waited so long to talk to you
And now I can't find the words to say
So I sit and I listen to you
Breathe on the open line
I can almost taste your lips
And touch your hair
It's like intoxicating wine
I can almost see your face
Through the miles and miles of space.

Chorus:
I can feel the power of a million lights
When I see your eyes burn bright
I can feel the sparks of a million volts
When you touch me through the night
I can feel the heat across a million miles
When your voice comes through the line
I can feel the power of a million lights
Come through the satellite.

(I'll touch you through the satellite, tonight
I'll touch your through the satellite)

Although these oceans hold us apart
Where there's a will, there's a way
I'm going to reach across the miles of sea
No matter what they say
So close your eyes and I'll be there
There's magic in the sky tonight
When you see the lightning flash around the world
It's the power of a million lights
Until I see your face
Through the miles and miles of space.

(Chorus)

(I'll touch you through the satellite, tonight
I'll touch your through the satellite)

Somewhere over the atmosphere
The signals are crossed, now you're not so clear
The power is out and the lines are down
My head is spinning round and round and round and round and round.

(You know I need you here tonight
By the power of a million lights...)

(Chorus)

Tonight I'll touch you through the satellite
(You know I need you here tonight)
Tonight, I'll touch through the power of a million lights
Tonight I'll touch you through the satellite
(You know I need you here tonight)
I'll touch your through the power of a million lights.


INTERLUDE 3

(L.Clark)

Instrumental


ONE MORE TOMORROW

(B. Bevan/M. Kaminski/P. Bates)

I'm lying here, I know the night must fall
The edge of darkness is so near
So hold back the night, hold back the night
It's the darkness that I fear.

And in my heart, there's not a shadow of a doubt
The final truth waits there for me
Nowhere to hide, nowhere to hide
From the memories.

Chorus:
Give me one more tomorrow
These todays alone mean nothing anymore
One more tomorrow
Another chance to find what I've been searching for.

Inner voices in the quiet of the night
The angry silence calls to me
There's no time for fears, no time for fears
Find a way to break free.

(chorus)

I'm praying for a little piece of heaven tonight
I'm looking for some help from a friend
And all I need is a miracle
To get me through this night that never ends
It never ends.

(chorus)

(chorus)


DONT WANNA

(E. Troyer)

Don't wanna talk, don't wanna walk
Don't wanna do anything
Don't wanna kick, don't wanna scream
Don't wanna sleep, don't wanna dream
Just wanna sit, just wanna stare
Do what you want, I don't care
Wait for the phone, wait for the ring
Don't wanna do anything.

Chorus:
Don't wanna work, don't wanna play
Just sit around every day
Don't wanna dance, don't wanna sing
Don't wanna do anything.

Don't wanna laugh, don't wanna cry
Just wanna sit and wonder why
It's just too much without your touch
Don't wanna do anything.

(chorus)

Don't wanna talk
Don't wanna walk
Don't wanna laugh
Don't wanna cry
Don't wanna dance
Don't wanna sing
Don't wanna do anything.

Don't wanna work, don't wanna play
(There's nothing I can do)
Don't wanna do anything, don't wanna see anyone
Don't wanna dance, don't wanna sing
(There's nothing I can do)
Don't wanna do anything, don't wanna see anyone
(Just sit around everyday)


VOICES

(P. Bates/M. Kaminski)

World -- is going through some changes
I see so many things that I don't understand
And people -- have got to feel the power
We got to take our lives back into our own hands
This is no time for silence
We got to be stronger
We can't live with the violence
We can't live with the fear.

Chorus:
Voices -- wanna hear them calling
From the highest mountain
Over land and sea
Voices -- wanna hear them calling
Hear the sound of freedom
Calling out to me.

Life -- just turns in a circle
If we look for solutions in the mistakes of the past.
And now -- we got to look to the future
We got to find the answers, we got to find them fast
So put the wheels in motion
If you wanna make changes
Out across the ocean
Let your words ring out.

(Chorus)

(Chorus)

(Chorus)


INTERLUDE 2

(L. Clark)

Instrumental


VIXEN
Hello -- hello, you little vixen, you


THE FOX

(K. Groucutt)

I wait 'till everyone's asleep
Then out into the night I creep
No one can see me now
Or hear me running soundlessly.

The moon's the only light I need
To search for food, young ones to feed
But as the drawn is drawing near the earth
My way's not clear
I'm trapped on the outside.

Moonlight save me, moonlight save me
Moonlight save me, moonlight save me.

Unearthly fear, it grips my skin
Unearthly sound, the hunt begins
I hear excited cries
But dare not look from where I'm hiding.

The multi-colored humans ride
Soon they will find me where I hide
The brown and white tormentors
Begin to howl and then I'm running.

Moonlight save me.

I cut across the trail I left five miles before
One chance to throw them off my scent, but I'm not sure
An elder told me it had worked sometime before.

My heart is beating like a drum
I make the ridge, but can't go on
I turn to face my death
But nothing comes to stop me breathing.

Down in the clearing now, I see
They're searching all around for me
Confusion everywhere
But I am safe up here
I've won, I've won, I've won, I've won, I've won!


LOVE OR MONEY

(E. Troyer/P. Bates)

Just don't look, no matter what they say
Don't let her get to you, make her go away
But you're only human
And the best laid plans of men go astray.

So all your good sense goes out the door
When you see that girl, walk across the floor
Too late, you've seen her
You've had a glimpse of paradise.

Chorus:
You never want to have to choose
(But come on, boy)
Is it love or money now?
(Money, money, love or money?)
Even if you win you lose
(What's it gonna be?)
Is it love or money now?

I'll close my eyes, I don't wanna see
Just go ahead, say what you will and I'll agree
Don't want illusions
I don't want confusion anymore.

(Chorus)

Is it love or money?
I said love or money
That can make your dreams come true
I know it sounds so funny
But it's always love or money
That makes you do the crazy thing that you do.

(Chorus)

Is it love or money?
What's it gonna be, now?
Is it love or money, now?


BLUE VIOLIN

(K. Groucutt/M. Kaminski)

Blue violin, play for me
You saddest melody.

Violin, play for me
Your saddest melody.


WHISKEY GIRLS

(B. Bevan/P. Bates)

Long hair, flashing eyes
The kind of hips that make you fantasize
A slow smile, just meant to tease
One look and you'll be weak at the knees
They got my head in a whirl
'Cos I can't get enough of those whiskey girls.

They got the world at their fingertips
With just a look and lick of the lips
They understand the rhythm of the night
I'm in a daze, I don't know wrong from right
They got me head in a whirl
'Cos I can't get enough of those whiskey girls

Chorus:
Hypnotized -- by the whiskey girls
Compromised -- out of this world
Lord above, could this be love?
Ain't no doubt about it
I'm crazy about the whiskey girls.

Whiskey girls are out on the town
They'll break your heart, they'll bring you down
Whiskey girls are out of control
For just one touch, you'd sell your soul.

The moon is high, I'm getting out of line
Wishful thinking with a one-track mind
I'm having flashes, oh can't you see
They're walking through my private fantasy
Wearing only a necklace of pearls
Those slow walking, long-legged whiskey girls.

(Chorus)

(Chorus)

Crazy about the whiskey girls
Whiskey girls.


INTERLUDE 1

(L. Clark)

Instrumental


TWIST OF THE KNIFE

(K. Groucutt/B. Bevan/P. Bates)

Lipstick traces on an unmade bed
We drank all night and got devils in our head
She said some things that should have stayed unsaid
Emotions overflowing
Now I don't know what to believe
Sitting here in the cold light of the day.

She felt anger, I felt pain
I walked out into the pouring rain
Packed my bags and took the midnight train
Didn't care where it was going
On my way, running like a thief
Hard to leave, but harder to stay.

There's no wrong, there's no right
But sometimes she breaks all the rules
Lying here, alone tonight
Can't believe love can be so cruel.

Wish I'd believed her
'Cos now I need her
Sometimes the truth just hurts too much.

Chorus:
She goes straight to the heart
With a truth that always finds me
Straight to the heart
And pulls tight the ties that bind me
She can be so cold
And it tears me apart
When she twists the knife
It goes straight to the heart.

Sometimes love is an endless fight
It's never simple, never black & white
Just like ships passing in the night
Who knows where they're going?
No forgiveness, no reprieve
Both sailing their separate ways
Light of day, dead of night
I'm searching for what I can't find
Try and try as I might
I can't get her out of my mind.

Wish I'd believed her
'Cos now I need her
I guess we all must love and learn.

(Chorus)

Straight to the heart
She goes straight to the heart.


SO GLAD YOU SAID GOODBYE

(B.Bevan/E.Troyer/P.Bates)

Stepping out of the shadows, I'm blinded by the light
There'll be no more wasted days, no more wasted nights
Stepping out of your shadow, I finally see the light
No more Mr. Nice Guy, I'm ready for the fight.

Weight off my shoulders, no more tears to cry
The chains are broken now, I see through your disguise.

Chorus:
So glad you're, so glad you're
So glad, I'm so glad you said goodbye
So glad you're, so glad you're
So glad, I'm so glad you said goodbye

Did you really think I'd just lay down and die?

No infatuation, I don't believe your lies
I can see so clearly now, the truth behind your eyes.

Weight off my shoulders, no more tears to cry
The chains are broken now, I see through your disguise.

(Chorus)

No more angry words, no chance for you to lie.
And did you really think I'd just lay down and die?

Passion fades away
Love can turn to hate
All the words I want to say
Are left in the hands of fate.

(Chorus)

No more angry words, no chance for you to lie
And did you really think I'd just lay down and die?
