Your Wildest Dreams
Once upon a time,
Once when you were mine,
I remember skies
Reflected in your eyes.
I wonder where you are,
I wonder if you
Think about me
Once upon a time,
In your wildest dreams.
Once the world was new,
Our bodies felt the morning dew
That greets the brand new day.
We couldn't tear ourselves away.
I wonder if you care.
I wonder if you still remember.
Once upon a time,
In your wildest dreams
And when the music plays,
And when the words are
Touched with sorrow,
When the music plays
I hear the sound.
I had to follow,
Once upon a time.
Once beneath the stars
The universe was ours.
Love was all we knew
And all I knew was you.
I wonder if you know,
I wonder if you think about it
Once upon a time,
In your wildest dreams
And when the music plays,
And when the words are
Touched with sorrow,
When the music plays,
And when the music plays
I hear the sound.
I had to follow,
Once upon a time
Once upon a time,
Once when you were mine,
I remember skies
Mirrored in your eyes.
I wonder where you are,
I wonder if you
Think about me,
Once upon a time.
In your wildest dreams.
In your wildest dreams.
In your wildest dreams.

Talkin' Talkin'
Talking, talking.
It doesn't really matter
If you know my name.
It doesn't really matter
If you see things the same
As I do.
It doesn't even matter
If I'm tired and tense.
It doesn't even matter
If I'm still making sense
Over you.
I'm just talking, talking,
Talking, talking,
'Cos I'm only talking, talking,
Talking, talking
It doesn't matter
What the people
All around you say.
Be careful how
You listen,
They don't know you
The way that I do
And, if you wanna
Talk about it baby,
That's alright,
It's better if I say it
Than to sit down
And write it to you.
I'm just talking, talking,
Talking, talking,
'Cos I'm only talking, talking.
It can be that
You're here with me
When I'm standing out
On my own,
The words of love
That you gave
When we were alone.
It doesn't matter
If you want to
Rock and roll all night,
I know you're gonna
Be there when the
Feeling is right,
The feeling is right,
The feeling is right.
I'm just talking, talking,
Talking, talking.
I'm just talking, talking,
Talking, talking.
You know I'm just
Talking, talking,
Talking, talking.

Rock 'n' Roll Over You
Like a rock I'm gonna roll over you.
Like a rock I'm gonna roll over you.
Not gonna lose my nerve,
Not gonna fall apart,
Not gonna turn the tide,
Not gonna start from the top,
Not gonna lose control,
Not gonna turn around,
Not gonna break my step,
Not gonna till I take you to the top
'Cos there's something baby
That I want you to know:
What price love
If there's nothing to show?
Like a rock I'm gonna roll over you.
Like a rock I'm gonna roll over you.
No need to close the door,
No need to lose your way,
No need to stand alone.
Just try to understand what I'm saying
'Cos I'm gonna hold on,
Not gonna turn you loose,
Not gonna bring you down,
Not gonna let you go,
I only want to take you to the top
'Cos, if I don't have you,
Then I want you to know:
What price love
If we've nothing to show?
Like a rock I'm gonna roll over you.
Like a rock I'm gonna roll over you.

I Just Don't Care
The indestructible has broken down,
The undeniable is turned around
And I don't care, my love,
I just don't care.
I love you.
The unbelievable has all come true,
I love the changes that you've put me through
And I don't care, you see,
I just don't care.
I love you.
I see the magic
That we're making now
And a veil is lifted
From my eyes, somehow,
And the most amazing thing
That comes to light
Is the world looks different
To me overnight.
My friends will tell you
That I've lost my cool,
The lovesick schoolboy
Turning up for school
But I don't care, you know,
I just don't care.
I love you.
I see the magic
That we're making now
And a veil is lifted
From my eyes, somehow,
And the most amazing thing
That comes to light
Is the world looks different
To me overnight.
My friends will tell you
That I've lost my cool,
The lovesick schoolboy
Turning up for school
But I don't care, you know,
I just don't care.
I love you.
'Cos I don't care, you see,
I just don't care.
I love you.
I love you

Running Out Of Love
Some days you're gonna put me on hold,
Some days you're gonna put me
On a pedestal up high.
I don't know if it's me,
I don't know if it's you,
I don't know if it's both of us
Not knowing what to do
When we're running out of love.
Not knowing what to do
When we're running out of love.
And when it comes to taking my calls
There's something more between us
Than a telephone line.
I can't believe it's me,
I can't believe it's you,
I can't believe it's both of us
Not knowing what to do
When we're running out of love.
Not knowing what to do
When we're running out of love
Can't think of how we lost our way.
Some days I feel
I'm getting very close to you.
Can't think of how the story ends,
Can't hear the words
I really want to hear from you.
We're running out of love.
Can't believe we're running out of love.
Can't believe we're running out of love
Some people like to put you on hold,
Some people like to put you
On a pedestal up high.
I don't know if it's me,
I don't know if it's you,
I don't know if it's both of us
Not knowing what to do
When we're running out of love.
Not knowing what to do
When we're running out of love.
Can't believe we're running out of love.
Can't believe we're running out of love.
Can't believe we're running out of love.

The Other Side Of Life
The atmosphere
On the streets tonight
Is the driving beat
Of the world.
The word down here
On the streets tonight
Is the truest music
You've heard.
So take your share
Of the gifts that are there,
They all belong to you
And, come what may,
At the break of each day,
We all begin anew once more.
We all begin anew
Baby, baby, baby,
Let's investigate
The other side of life tonight.
The lovers and the fighters
And the risks they take
Are on the other side of life tonight.
Let's lose our way,
Go completely astray
And find ourselves again.
You know the only way to get there
Is to take that step
To the other side of life tonight.
The atmosphere
On the streets tonight
Is the driving beat
Of the world.
The word down here
On the streets tonight
Is the truest music
You've heard.
So take your share
Of the gifts that are there,
They all belong to you
And, come what may,
At the break of each day,
We all begin anew once more.
We all begin anew
Baby, baby, baby,
Let's investigate
The other side of life tonight.
The lovers and the fighters
And the risks they take
Are on the other side of life tonight.
Let's lose our way,
Go completely astray
And find ourselves again.
You know the only way to get there
Is to take that step
To the other side of life tonight.

The Spirit
The sun and moon every day,
Day and night, mark my play.
See the future in the past,
Try to change or make it last.
Go for broke, don't regret,
Get your hands dirty, get your feet wet,
Take your place, use me well,
I'm in your hands so make me tell.
A broken dream seems unkind
But I can help for I am time.
I can heal you.
It's not a matter of sleight
Only of sound.
Let me... feel for you,
Feel for yourself,
The love all around.
I can... lead you.
Is your soul afraid
Of what you've made?
Do you know the way
The spirit goes?
All around, on the wind
Distant whispers of what I bring,
In the day in the night,
Locked in the words of lovers' delight.
If I'm lost or mislaid
Just keep looking, don't be afraid.
In the eye, on the mind,
I'm everything and yours to find.
I'm not far, just discover.
I'm in you for I am love.
I can heal you.
It's not a matter of sleight
Only of sound.
Let me... feel for you,
Feel for yourself,
The love all around.
I can... lead you.
Is your soul afraid
Of what you've made?
Do you know the way
The spirit goes?

Slings And Arrows
Slings and arrows, slings and arrows,
Slings and arrows, slings and arrows.
No chance for a second chance
When the arrows start to fly.
No way is an easy way
To say goodbye.
No dream is ever lost
If you never cease to try.
Never thought you would walk away
From my side.
I just can't hide from
Slings and arrows, slings and arrows,
Slings and arrows, slings and arrows.
Life is ever changing,
Nothing stays the same,
Nothing in this whole wide world
Can turn us back again
'Cos where we're standing now
Is the point of no return,
Looking back on a world that's got to learn
You just can't hide from
Slings and arrows, slings and arrows,
Slings and arrows, slings and arrows.
Love is the shield
When you're standing
With your back to the wall
And if you turn around
And walk away
You're never gonna lose
'Cos love conquers all.
No chance for a second chance
When the arrows start to fly.
No way is an easy way
To say goodbye.
No dream is ever lost
If you never cease to try.
Never thought you would walk away
From my side.
I just can't hide from
Slings and arrows, slings and arrows
Slings and arrows, slings and arrows

It May Be A Fire
It may be a fire,
Tomorrow it could be nothing.
It may reach out to the sky,
Light up everything that you know.
Everywhere you go from now
You will see better than before.
People you've not known for years
Will come knocking at your door.
It may be a fire
But you gotta get it into your heart
It may be a warm wind
That tries to blow your heart away.
It may walk into your life,
Tell you everything that you know.
Looking down through all the years,
Making plans that have gone past,
Something you've not known for years
But you knew that it would last.
It may be a fire
But you gotta get it into your heart
I'm turning all the answers
Inside out,
Looking for a love
That reaches out,
Or the fire into your heart
It may be a fire,
Tomorrow it may be nothing.
It may reach up to the sky,
Light up everything that I know,
Everywhere I go from now
I will see better than before
People I've known for years
Will come knocking at my door.
It may be a fire
But you gotta get it into your heart.
It may be a fire
But you gotta get it,
You gotta get it,
You gotta get it into your heart.
It may be a fire
But you gotta get it
Into your heart.
