Lyrics

1. LONELU TONIGHT

Baby, I got some news for you
You’re breaking me down, got my heart on the ground
You know it's true

Heart beats fast in the middle of the night
Tears are crying out for the love of you
Can't stop from taking the love we've been making

Darling, I got a line on you
Well, the truth came to light, when I heard it tonight
It tore my heart in two

Tell me now, I don't wanna be lonely
Lonely tonight

Don't leave me here all alone, baby


2. GO DOWN

Tell you one more lie tonight
Deeper yet the thorn in my side
Never mind, the hand that holds you steady
Is the hand that you bite

All I want is next to you see you when the rain comes down
And all I want is sad but true somebody to ease my mind

Wrap yourself around tonight
Deeper yet the thorn in your side
Close your eyes, the hand that holds you steady
Has a jewel for the bride

It goes around, comes around and comes around again
Now you got that feeling you're going down again


3. BLUE SKY

Well, I'm down and out and there ain't no doubt
I'm a lonely man in love
You took my heart in the palm of your hand
And squeezed till you'd had enough

Well, it seems to me my darling left me in the pouring rain
Sun don't shine, moon won't rise
Let me see your smile again

Then I'll know where I go, I can see a sunrise
Then I'll be alive but for now I'll have to say

Goodbye blue sky, hello Mr Moon
When these tears dry I'll be home, I'll be home real soon

Well, I kept my pride deep inside me
I'm a lonely man in pain
You took my soul with an angel smile
And a walk to make a man insane

Goodbye blue sky, hello Mr Rain
When the skies clear I'll be back, I'll be back again

Sooner or later I'll see the sun begin to shine
Warming my heart along the way
Crazy as it may seem I'm still in love with you
I'll be waiting for you under the sky of blue


4. LET THE CHILDREN PLAY

A mother cries alone tonight in a room with empty arms
Baby flies on the wind, her angel wings
Devil’s hand works alone tonight
In a world of blackened hearts
Baby flies on the wind, her angel wings

Innocence gone into the flame
Angels in heaven crying in vain

Got the news on the wire today, it cut me to the bone
Children lying in a field of fire
Then I heard tormented screams, a woman pained with grief
Children dying in a field of fire

Le t the children play
Just let them see another day

Thunder rips the sky in two in a blazing feast of flame
Papers said that the children died in a blood for money game
Anger rages through my heart
And the smoke it black the skies
Hell-bent on another sin as another baby dies

Got the news on the wire today,
It cut me through and through
Still the blind lead the blind, is there nothing we can do?


5. DEVIL'S TRAIN

Feels fine, living is easy,
My head is coming clear of the pain
So good, out on the tiles, like a lover drive another insane
Whatcha do, whatcha say whatcha thinkin’ ‘bout?
It really doesn’t matter, you see
‘Cos I’m long gone and a hard healing preacher
Won’t ever kill the devil in me

Can you hear the sound? It’s heaven coming down
Running off the rails tonight
If you climb aboard for a ride
On the devil’s train

Slow ride, sailing south of heaven
On a train running out of control
I fell a little off the level
And the devil took hold of my soul
He said…

Whatcha do, whatcha say whatcha thinkin’ ‘bout?
It really doesn’t matter, you knew
‘Cos I’m long gone and a hard healing preacher
Won’t ever kill the devil in you


6. DARK OF THE NIGHT

Cold, so cold in my dream
You took your fill, so easy it seems
I wake in shadow and pray for the light
Free me from your memory in the dark of the night

You took my spirit higher
Set my heart alight in a burning ring of fire
You were a diamond with a soul made of stone
Evening falling, now I’m here on my own

Bleeding dies my broken heart
Chasing shadows through the dark of the night
Cold as ice you play your part
Left me standing in the dark of the night

Cold, stone cold eyes
You wove your web, left me tangled in lies
You move in shadow away from the light
Under cover in the dark of the night

You’ll never have enough
This selfish kind of love
Won’t melt the chains that bind your frozen heart


7. FLIGHTS OF ANGELS

Carry on, let your heart be strong
Lay your worries down for me
And on a cool, clear night
I’ll be with you in a melody

Look ahead, take the road that leads you
On the way to all your dreams
And though we stood apart, I’ll be there in your heart
Now the sky is crying a storm of tears

You wiped a teardrop from my eye
You made me smile before we said goodbye
So spread your golden wings and fly into the sun
May the flights of angels take you home

And I, I see you in everything I do
From my songs right to my smile
And though we stood apart, I’ll keep you in your heart

Carry on, let your heart be strong
Lay your worries down for me
And on a cool, clear night
Just like an angel might

You will hear me calling in a whisper of the wind


8. MAKE BELIEVE

Heaven waiting, a picture-perfect dream, a fantasy world
Daylight fading, her kiss so poison sweet, imagined a pearl

Give my surrender to an innocent charm
But only fools can hold a dream in their arms

Make believe
Her arms are faithful, her words stand true
Make believe
That her love is strong, worth holding on

Heaven fading
A picture-perfect dream that passed in the night
Watching, waiting
A moment’s magic memory freed into flight


9. ON A ROLL

Head down, laying down
Living like a dog in the street, I’m on my way

Hard fast and making time
Only way to run in the race
Like a killer at the scene of the crime
Alligator smile on his face

On a roll, I’m hanging over the edge
On a roll and they ain’t never gonna bury me
I’m on a roll, get out of my way
I’m on a roll, I live today

Shot down, doing time,
Living like a rat in a cage, I’m on my way

Screams won’t break down a prison wall
Never setting foot in the light
Hell comes calling in the dark of the room
Demon’s coming out in the night

On a roll, I’m hanging over the edge
On a roll and they’re never gonna set me free


10. COLD HEART

Pick me up and then throw me down
Keep me crawling across the ground
Roll me over and run me through
Killing me for the likes of you

Well, it just ain’t natural, this hold you got on me
So I have to break away, yes, it’s plain to see
That your wicked ways may suit you well
But you won’t drag my heart through hell
No, no, you’ve got a…

Cold heart, living a lie for a life in chains
Cold heart, living a lie going down in flames

Gave my heart and soul to you
Nothing left for me to do
Heavy-hearted and holding on
Dream’s alive but the love is gone


11. UNDER FIRE

Hard wind blowing across my back
Wolves keep coming, they’re on my track, oh yeah
You go your way, I go mine
But you keep stepping across that line, oh yeah

You won’t shake me, make or break me
I’m a wounded rattlesnake ready to strike

I’m under fire, give it all to the power of rock n roll

Freight train coming dressed in black
Walk these heels across your back, oh yeah
I tried leaving the past behind
But you keep stepping across that line, oh yeah

Always ready and on attack
To twist the knife that’s in my back, oh yeah

You can’t do me, black and blue me
I’m a wounded rattlesnake ready to strike


12. LOST IN TOKYO
