1. ROCK 'N' ROLL NIGHTS

A chance is all that we've got
without a moment to choose
we've got to take it

Young hearts in the night
with nothing to loose
we can make it

So get it up, stop puttin' it down
there's only one way you can do it
shout it out to the heart of this town
so they can all hear what we're saying

We've got it all
nothing more than we need
just a Rock 'n' Roll heartbeat

To the heart of this town
I'm glad to be around in Rock 'n' Roll nights
you and me, Rock 'n' Roll nights
you and me, Rock 'n' Roll nights

And I, I know
I can feel the burnin' rhythm beat out of control
and you, can't you see
no it's time to be alive, it's time to break free

We've got it all
nothing more than we need
just a Rock 'n' Roll heartbeat

To the heart of this town
I'm glad to be around in Rock 'n' Roll nights
you and me, Rock 'n' Roll nights
you and me

Oh I think I'm going to make it
I'm burning out of control
send me out on the streets that I desire
I wanna Rock 'n' Roll

We've got it all
nothing more than we need
just a Rock 'n' Roll heartbeat

To the heart of this town
I'm glad to be around in Rock 'n' Roll nights
you and me, Rock 'n' Roll nights
you and me, Rock 'n' Roll nights
you and me, Rock 'n' Roll nights
you and me, Rock 'n' Roll nights

2. MY WAY

Winding, driving I see a little light
and feel the pulse in the back of my head
feeling like a fool on the way to the school
and begging for a leg to stand

Folding little darling, I see you ain't laughing
in the back, in the palm of your hand
lonely in the night, fever riding high
I'm crossing over the edge

Sometimes, there's a ringing in my heart
it's more than a feeling
right through the night
dreams about tomorrow
there's got to be a reason

Now I see you walking my way
eyes of fire taking me higher
you're making it harder

Mosey was a calling
the laws of love were falling
like a feeling in the summer breeze

So I thought I'd take a chance
on a wasted circumstance
to finally give me just what I need

waiting for a sign
it's gonna be real fine
and when the feeling comes knocking again
I'll throw it to the wind
and wait for summer sin
to take me to the other side

Sometimes, there's a ringing in my heart
it's more than a feeling
right through the night
dreams about tomorrow
there's got to be a reason

Now I see you walking my way
eyes of fire taking me higher
you're making it harder
Now I see you walking my way
eyes of fire taking me higher

Now I see you walking my way
eyes of fire taking me higher
you're making it harder
Now I see you walking my way
eyes of fire taking me higher
you're making it harder

3. BAD BOYS

Doing time ain't easy
living in the social stare
baby you got your problems
but I don't really care

So take your moral standards
and shove them up your a...
attitude away your blues
and tango by the moonlight

Life can taste so sweet
when you are down on your knees
no, no, no, no, no
slippin' in the back door
bad boys
bad boys need loving too
bad boys
bad boys need loving too

Sunday morning sermon
service with a smile
I can hear the angels callin' me
temptation drives me wild

Rising in the evening
lying next to you
I can't seem to find no peace of mind
bad boys need loving too

Let me tell you
life can taste so sweet
when you are down on your knees
no, no, no, no, no
slippin' in the back door
bad boys
bad boys need loving too
bad boys
bad boys need loving too

Bad boys
bad boys need loving too
bad boys
bad boys need loving too

Bad boys
bad boys need loving too
so gimme little lovin'
bad boys

4. MIDNIGHT LOVE

I'm lying here with just a thought of you
girl, you don't know what you're putting me through
dreams of passion
and this midnight love

Imagination warms my soul
the hours pass and I lose control
I wanna feel your touch
in this midnight love

In the heat of the night I can still feel the fire
now the fire is gone and your heart turns to stone
I ain't leaving this time without a warning

Now I'm searching for a reason
for a love that's out of season
Should've known that you were teasing me

The situation's oh so clear
don't have to say you don't want me near
it's out of fashion
it's just a midnight love

I try to find the words to say
with memories of yesterday
sometimes it gets too much
in this midnight love

In the heat of the night I can still feel your fire
now the fire is gone and your heart turns to stone
I ain't leaving this time without a warning

Now I'm searching for a reason
for a love that's out of season
Should've known that you were teasing me

Now I'm living on a last chance
of this never ending romance
but I'm trying hard to make you see

Now I'm searching for a reason
for a love that's out of season
Should've known that you were teasing me

Now I'm living on a last chance
of this never ending romance
but I'm trying hard to make you see

Now I'm searching for a reason
for a love that's out of season
Should've known that you were teasing me

5. WHERE ARE YOU NOW?

City streets, walking after midnight
lost in the crowd, out on my own
Whithout you here
the nights are never ending
I still see your face wherever I go

I close my eyes
across a million miles of broken dreams
and pray your restless soul
will lead you back again to me

Where are you now?
are you missing me tonight
or does someone else hold you tight?
take a look around
are you just too blind to see?
no one could love you more than me
and when your world comes tumblin' down
someday I'll hear you say
where are you now?

All alone in a town full of strangers
talking to myself over a drink or two
looking through tears for a runaway angel
dancing 'til dawn with memories of you

I listen to my lonely heart
in rhythm with the rain
and pray I'll find a way
to make your stormy seasons change baby

Where are you now?
are you missing me tonight
or does someone else hold you tight?
take a look around
are you just too blind to see?
no one could love you more than me
and when your world comes tumblin' down
someday I'll hear you say
where are you now?

I wonder
if you ever wonder what became of me
baby I need you so desperately tonight
baby won't you tell me
where are you now?

And when your world comes tumblin' down
someday I'll hear you say
you know I'll hear you say

Where are you now?
are you missing me tonight
or does someone else hold you tight?
take a look around
are you just too blind to see?
no one could love you more than me

Where are you now?
are you missing me tonight
or does someone else hold you tight?
take a look around
are you just too blind to see?
no one could love you more than me

Where are you now?
are you missing me tonight
or does someone else hold you tight?
take a look around
are you just too blind to see?
no one could love you more than me

Where are you now?
are you missing me tonight
or does someone else hold you tight?...

6. NIGHTSTREET

Got a letter from the local zoo
and a key to the lions cage
it said "son, we believe you've been sleeping
on the other side of the legal age"

So they gave me a room where the sun don't shine
and they call you by a numbered name
And I feel I wanna shout, but the only way out
is to find out why the hell you came

Lookin' for some action
I need a love reaction, tonight
and I'm rollin' with the thunder
this feeling that I'm under
it's where I've never been

Living on nightstreet, I'm seeing faces that I've never seen
living on nightstreet, and it's better than it's ever been

Four days and I'll be on my way
to the circus on the other side
these four walls looking kind of cold
but I know it's just a matter of time

I got a hard hat, full sack, shining like a Cadillac
come on and loosen my load
I got a time bomb tickin', looking for a lickin'
feel like I'm about to explode

Lookin' for some action
I need a love reaction, tonight
and I'm rollin' with the thunder
this feeling that I'm under
it's where I've never been

Living on nightstreet, I'm seeing faces that I've never seen
living on nightstreet, I'm going to places that I've never been
Living on nightstreet, I'm seeing faces that I've never seen
living on nightstreet, and it's better than it's ever been

Living on nightstreet, I'm seeing faces that I've never seen
living on nightstreet, I'm going to places that I've never been
Living on nightstreet, I'm seeing faces that I've never seen
living on nightstreet, and it's better than it's ever been
Living on nightstreet

7. THIS TIME

I've been living a day at a time
I just wanna be a part of your life
but I've been away
time is all I need

So many times I've wanted to say
that our lives can't go on this way
there's nothing I can do
only time will see us through

I've never felt this way before
it's another night without you
and I need you more than ever
did you mean the words
"we'll make it last forever"?

This time I'm ready to learn, oh baby
this time I'm ready to learn about love
this time I'm ready to learn
ready to learn about love
baby to learn about love

All alone in my hotel room
so many things remind me of you
and I realize
that it doesn't have to be this way

You talk of being lonely
it'll always seem that way
just take a day at a time
or the strength of love will blind you

I've never felt this way before
it's another night without you
and I need you more than ever
did you mean the words
"we'll make it last forever"?

This time I'm ready to learn, oh baby
this time I'm ready to learn about love
this time I'm ready to learn
baby to learn about love
baby to learn about love

This time I'm ready to learn, oh baby
this time I'm ready to learn about love
this time I'm ready to learn
baby to learn about love

This time I'm ready to learn, oh baby
this time I'm ready to learn about love
this time I'm ready to learn
baby to learn about love
baby to learn about love

I just wanna be a part of your life...

8. FIRST BREAK OF THE HEART

Sometimes it felt so easy
loving you would always last
I opened my eyes and it was then I realised
that losing you was all that I could stand

Maybe I'm wrong, but it's just the way I feel
there's no turning back, I gotta keep moving
baby I'm moving

First break of the heart, when I needed you
first break of the heart, like you wanted too
first break of the heart, I believed in you
cut like a knife, just like a fool

Goodbye romance forever
goodbye to broken hearts and wasted tears
'cause I've paid the price for love
and it's a crime I'm guilty of
losing you was all that I could stand

Maybe I'm wrong, but it's just the way I feel
there's no turning back, I gotta keep moving
baby I'm moving

First break of the heart, when I needed you
first break of the heart, like you wanted too
first break of the heart, I believed in you
cut like a knife, just like a fool

Oh maybe I'm wrong, but it's just the way I feel
there's no turning back, I gotta keep moving
baby I'm moving

First break of the heart, when I needed you
first break of the heart, like you wanted too
first break of the heart, I believed in you
cut like a knife, just like a fool

9. STAND BACK

Taking a chance on a night flight
knowing just where we ought to be
and people stare and whisper
they seem to know just where we've been

Lost in a dream full of silence
walk by day and fly by night
backs to the wall you can still hear them call
just searching for some honesty

I've been on this road now for so long
it's making me harder now
And I've seen what was coming, now I've gone
I'm standing on higher ground

Stand back, human racing
there's no change, we're all facing
stand back, time is racing now
Stand back, human racing
there's no change, we're all facing
stand back, time is racing now

I've been on this road now for so long
it's making me harder now
And I've seen what was coming, now I've gone
I think I'm gonna make it

Feeling alone at this moment in time
I look to the stars
for the dreams that are mine

Stand back, human racing
there's no change, we're all facing
stand back, time is racing now
Stand back, human racing
there's no change, we're all facing
stand back, time is racing now
Stand back, human racing
there's no change, we're all facing
stand back, time is racing now

10. JIMI G

Jimi G, you're a hard hitting man
but you're running out of reasons
better face it while you can

Jimi G, now you're old enough to see
you've been chasing the sun that blinded you
to the things you used to be

You know the night is going to keep haunting you
that lonely ride ain't never gonna take you through

So if the wind turns out your light
you gotta ride on, ride on
when the morning meets the night
you gotta ride on, ride on
and keep on riding

So pack them bags
and let the high road set you free
you're just a Rock 'n' Roll gypsy being what you wanna be
need no company

The open skies, underneath you made your home
you got lost in the city, never looking for no pity
a place to call your own

You know the night is gonna keep haunting you
that lonely ride ain't never gonna take you through

So if the wind turns out your light
you gotta ride on, ride on
and when the morning meets the night
you gotta ride on, ride on
ride on...

So if the wind turns out your light
you gotta ride on, ride on
and when the morning meets the night
you gotta ride on, ride on
keep on riding...

Jimi G, now you've gone and lost your pride
a lonely heart, that's where it died
just another rock 'n' rollin' suicide
and his spirit rides on...
