1. Goin' nowhere

I'm tired out, my head is aching
I wanna shout, but I feel I'm goin' nowhere
Yeah, I feel I'm goin' nowhere
I've run about in a fit of madness
To work it out in the hope of goin' somewhere
Yeah I hope I'm goin' somewhere

And I know it must be time for me making up my mind
Does it matter if I'm fine? It'll change my tune in time
If I'm really goin' nowhere

I'm better now, I've thought about it
Can't figure out, but I'm looking for it somewhere
All I know is that it's somewhere
It's closer now than I've ever had it
Much closer now, so I must be getting somewhere
Yeah, I hope I'm getting somewhere

'cos you never know, in time with the changing of my mind
I could turn around and say that was just another day
Am I really goin' nowhere?

I've run about in a fit of madness
To work it out in the hope of goin' somewhere
Yeah I hope I'm goin' somewhere

'cos you never know, in time with the changing of my mind
I could turn around and say that was just another day
Am I really goin' nowhere

2. I didn't mean it

When you say those words, those three little words
You're in at the deep end
Give up the night times, give up the high times
Give up the weekend
Give up the chance to be your own man
Let the feeling take over
The only way out is to lie if you can
But you don't have the knack
And you'll come crawling back, saying

I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it
I didn't mean to say what I said when I said I didn't mean it
I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it
I didn't mean to say what I said it was only a game
I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it
I didn't mean to tell you in so many words, I didn't mean it
I felt tied down, my pride down
That I put that lie down
The prize now for you is me

Well I was like you and all I could do was
Give up and surrender
The people can trace what they did in my face
But they're just pretenders
They told me mercenary action today
Is a line as simple and pure
But what if you found you made a mistake
The medicine's worse than the cure
And you'll be back for sure, saying

I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it
I didn't mean to say what I said when I said I didn't mean it
I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it
I didn't mean to say what I said it was only a game
I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it
I didn't mean to tell you in so many words, I didn't mean it
I felt tied down, my pride down
That I put that lie down
The prize now for you is me

Give up the chance to be your own man
Let the feeling take over
The only way out is to lie if you can
But you don't have the knack
And you'll come crawling back, saying

I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it
I didn't mean to say what I said when I said I didn't mean it
I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it
I didn't mean to say what I said it was only a game
I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it
I didn't mean to tell you in so many words, I didn't mean it
I felt tied down, my pride down
That I put that lie down
The prize now for you is me

3. Confidence

All she needs is a little confidence
All she knows is to run and hide
Through a lifetime of knocking back
Oh don't do this you can't do that
But she never learned to interact
All she needs is confidence

All she learned was a little self-defence
Looking out over number one
She's been diving and ducking round
In and out the lost and found
But it never laid her to the ground

All she needs is something to believe
Sweet security
All she needs tries so hard to please
But all she really all she really needs
Is confidence

No chance of keeping her close to me
No sense abusing her liberty

Through a lifetime of knocking back
Oh don't do this you can't do that
But she never learned to interact
All she needs is something to believe
Sweet security
All she needs tries so hard to please
All she really all she really needs
Is confidence

4. Point of no return

Is it another day
Is there another way
Nothing at all to say
It's just another day without you
Long way without you
Should I be holding back
Should I be holding out
Should I be keeping quiet
When I could scream and shout about you
All out about you
You, you give me everything but love
Shall I hold on, has it all gone

This is the way it is
This is the point of no return
We get the messages
Still we have everything to learn
Telling it like it is
This is the point of no return

Am I the last to learn
Am I the last to know
Is it a parting shot
Is it the final blow without you
To go without you
You, you give me everything but love
Shall I hold on, has it all gone

This is the way it is
This is the point of no return
We get the messages
Still we have everything to learn
Telling it like it is
This is the point of no return

Always too long, always too far
Always too strong for me to defend
Is it a fade, is it an end

You, you give me everything but love
Shall I hold on, has it all gone

This is the way it is
This is the point of no return
We get the messages
Still we have everything to learn
Telling it like it is
This is the point of no return

This is the way it is
This is the point of no return
We get the messages
Still we have everything to learn
Telling it like it is
This is the point of no return
This is the way it is

The point of no return
The point of no return
The point of no return
The point of no return
The point of no return
The point of no return

5. Sail away

Sail away to the place across the sea
Leave today so you cannot bother me
And you cannot fail to see
That it doesn't really matter much to me
No it doesn't really matter that much to me

Blown away any time I wanted you
Played away so I thought I'd try it too
Just to see what I could do
But it didn't really matter much to me
No it didn't really matter that much to me

Living on the east side, looking to the west side
Looking on the bright side, bright side
Stepping over that line, checking out the birth-sign
Making up for lost time, lost time

Sail away, don't believe I give a damn
Go today, go and leave me as I am
I'll remember when I can
And it doesn't really matter much to me
No it doesn't really matter that much to me

Living on the east side, looking to the west side
Looking on the bright side, bright side
Stepping over that line, checking out the birth-sign
Making up for lost time, lost time

Sail away, could it be I've found away
For today is the day I'm gonna write
'Bout the story of my life
Will it ever really matter much to me
Will it ever really matter that much to me

Living on the east side, looking to the west side
Looking on the bright side, bright side
Stepping over that line, checking out the birth-sign
Making up for lost time, lost time
Living on the east side, looking to the west side
Looking on the bright side, bright side...

6. Like it or not

Isn't it more the way you do it than the way that you look?
Isn't it in the way you use it, not the lessons you took?
Isn't it time you started asking what goes on in your mind?

You won't take no for an answer
Nobody could tell you your place
They'd better not turn round and tell ya
Even if it's straight to your face
I ain't lonely but I'm happy if it makes you feel good
But it's no way, it's a fool's way, it'll end up no good

Isn't it more the way you do it than the way that you look?
Isn't it in the way you use it, not the lessons you took?
Isn't it time you started asking what goes on in your mind?
This is the way I want to do it whether you like it or not
This is the way I gotta tell you and I ain't gonna stop
Baby I should have let you find it out, but in your own time

So don't be scared of the future
Everything is looking real fine
I think my way's gonna suit ya
But only if you're gonna stay mine
And you could do, and you should do, it'll make you feel fine
'Cos the best way is the best way, and we'll make it on time

Well I've been really, really wondering am I losing my mind?
Why do we do the things we shouldn't do? We'd rather be fine
We're in a sticky situation and you really don't mind.
This is the way I want to do it whether you like it or not
This is the way I gotta tell you and I ain't gonna stop
Baby I should have let you find it out, but in your own time

And you could do, and you should do, it'll make you feel fine
'Cos the best way is the best way, and we'll make it on time

Isn't it more the way you do it than the way that you look?
Isn't it in the way you use it, not the lessons you took?
Isn't it time you started asking what goes on in your mind?
This is the way I want to do it whether you like it or not
This is the way I gotta tell you and I ain't gonna stop
We're in a sticky situation and you really don't mind

7. Soft in the head

Soft in the head, I must be soft in the head
Out of my head, I'm probably out of my head
Things that I said are only things that I said
Soft in the head I must be
Out of my head, I must be out of my head
Soft in the head I must be

I've never been so worried 'bout the things I do
I've never thought of people, I'm a liar too
So won't you listen to me and the things I say
Maybe you'll go home one day

And if I leave you thinking 'bout the things you do
And I leave you looking for an answer too
Such a silly question that I ever knew
Daddy, what is (if you know, please tell me!)

But I don't believe in not believing in miracles
Anything could happen now
We all need a guiding light in the alleyway
Funny how it all works out
Funny how it all works out

Soft in the head, I must be soft in the head
Out of my head, I'm probably out of my head
Things that I said are only things that I said
Soft in the head I must be
Out of my head, I must be out of my head
Soft in the head I must be

I've got a great big problem that I can't work out
I've got a bunch of people gonna wear me out
Got a funny feeling it's all in the air
We're all going home one day

But I don't believe in not believing in miracles
Anything could happen now
We all need a guiding light in the alleyway
Funny how it all works out
But I don't believe in not believing in miracles
Anything could happen now
We all need a guiding light in the alleyway
Funny how it all works out

8. Queenie

A long time ago I saw you there
Sitting in a corner chair
I was looking for a place to stay
You were only hanging out and hanging around
I didn't see what I was looking for
I guess I never really knew
I was looking for a private eye
You never knew what I was talking about

Queenie, Queenie, Queenie, won't you come along and make a
home
with me
Queenie, Queenie, Queenie, we could settle down and make some
history
Queenie, Queenie, Queenie, we could never stop it if we wanted
to
Queenie, Queenie, Queenie, we could be so happy with a family

The next time I saw you was the summertime
I'm just a little older now
Things seemed to get a little better then
You went out and got a ticket taking you home
It really was a shame I didn't follow you
It would have saved a lot of time
I had to come around eventually
And ask you if you want to maybe marry me

Queenie, Queenie, Queenie, won't you come along and make a
home
with me
Queenie, Queenie, Queenie, we could settle down and make some
history
Queenie, Queenie, Queenie, we could never stop it if we wanted
to
Queenie, Queenie, Queenie, we could be so happy with a family

Queenie, Queenie, Queenie, won't you come along and make a
home
with me
Queenie, Queenie, Queenie, we could settle down and make some
history
Queenie, Queenie, Queenie, we could never stop it if we wanted
to
Queenie, Queenie, Queenie, we could be so happy with a family
Queenie, Queenie, Queenie, won't you come along and make a
home
with me
Queenie, Queenie, Queenie, we could settle down and make some
history

9. Lover of the human race

We build it all, soon we're scaling the wall together
Hard hearts, simple minds, no thought of what
We're leaving behind forever more
Oh well, I never really knew my place
I was a nuclear waste of space
Now I'm a lover of the human race

Flat broke, empty house, ice cold, hand to mouth we're
getting
Cracked up, gone to seed, blindly following politician's lead
Oh well, I never really knew my place
I was a nuclear waste of space
Now I'm a lover of the human race

We need something more, always something more
Still we know for sure show is nearly over now
Party's gonna come to an end

Wishbone walking cane, black shades, looking to throw it all
away
Such well-meaning plans, hot hands messing around with DNA
Oh well, I never really knew my place
I was a nuclear waste of space
Now I'm a lover of the human race
A lover of the human race
A lover of the human race

We need something more, always something more
Still we know for sure show is nearly over now
Party's gonna come to an end
We need something more, always something more
Still we know for sure show is nearly over now
Party's gonna come to an end

10. Sherri don't fail me now!

Got a mess in my back yard, gonna clean it all up
It's time for doing things backwards, start strutting my
stuff
Oh now the time has come to change
Strawberry fields, kicking my heels
Losing my place and forgetting my name

There's a cupboard in my room, got a skeleton key
Gonna crack it wide open, stop 'em following me
Oh now it's time to change it all
The ghosts are there, I'm tearing my hair
Chewing my nails and I'm climbing the wall

But it's all right, if I've got a problem you've got all the
answers
Stay this night, I'll make it up to you in some way, somehow
Oh but Sherri, don't fail me now

Gonna get a black spotlight, gonna stage a new plan
Gonna wash away the blood stains, start scrubbing my hands
Oh no, but here it comes again
The dirty sea is swallowing me
I'm fighting for air and the danger expands

But it's all right, if I've got a problem you've got all the
answers
Stay this night, I'll make it up to you in some way, somehow
Oh but Sherri, don't fail me now

But it's all right, if I've got a problem you've got all the
answers
Stay this night, I'll make it up to you in some way, somehow
Oh but Sherri, don't fail me
Make it all right, if I've got a problem you've got all the
answers
Stay this night, I'll make it up to you in some way, somehow
Oh but Sherri, don't fail me now
Oh but Sherri, don't fail me now

11. Rude awakening

It's time to make it better, it's rude awakening time
So write it in a letter and you can clear your mind
You make me very happy, you make me very sad
It's time to make it better, the best I ever had
It's time to make it better, but nothing lasts for ever
It's rude awakening time

So get moving and get yourself off my bed
Well get moving and get yourself gone instead.
You been away so long you can't find your way home
You've been using and wrapped yourself round your head
You're confusing everything that you said
You been so far gone so gone so far so long
You been gone so long so gone so far so long

It's time to make it better, it's rude awakening time
Well write it in a letter and you can clear your mind
You make me very happy, you make me very sad
It's time to make it better, the best I ever had
It's time to make it better, but nothing lasts for ever
It's rude awakening time

And just maybe you oughta think twice ahead.
It's been a long, long time since you've been close to home

It's time to make it better, it's rude awakening time
Well write it in a letter and you can clear your mind
You make me very happy, you make me very sad
It's time to make it better, the best I ever had
It's time to make it better, and nothing lasts for ever
It's rude awakening time

You've been rollin' and rockin' it another way
You've been slowly giving up day by day
You been so far gone so gone so far so long
You been gone so long so gone so far so long

12. Back on my feet

I'm back on my feet again, I'm flying high
Watching my back again, or I could die

When we're up there flying
And it all seems fine
That's the time we're trying
Trying hard, what a fool
Saying anything to please at all
But I'm back on my feet again, I'm flying high
Watching my back again, or I could die

Is it down to timing?
Get it right first time
Is it so exciting?
Keeping on with the flow
Giving everybody such a show
But I'm back on my feet again, I'm flying high
Watching my back again, or I could die
Out on the street again, I'm riding high
Worried 'bout anything that passes by

It's not a nightmare or a dream
It's not the first time that it's been

I'm back on my feet again, I'm flying high
Watching my back again, or I could die

So it's time to work out
What is going on
So you'd best not freak out
Lose your mind, lose your cool
It's the quickest way to end it all
But I'm back on my feet again, I'm flying high
Watching my back again, or I could die
Out on the street again, I'm riding high
Worried 'bout anything that passes by
Back on my feet again, I'm flying high
Watching my back again, or I could die

13. Restless

There are words to say but I swear I just can't find them
Though in my heart I know fools
May hesitate from the memories behind them
While the angels laugh and say, I told you so
Oh, I'm restless, darling I'm restless
Waiting for you to look my way
I don't think that I can wait another day

I cry when the feeling overtakes me
'Cos the love I give seems so little in your eyes
The test of time always breaks me
With nothing tried, and nothing realised
Oh, I'm restless, darling I'm restless
Waiting for you to look my way
I don't think that I can wait another day

No man is an island but you do that very well
It sure takes a fool to find another

But I believe for every heart that's broken
There's a stranger's smile to put it on the mend, then
Those old familiar feelings seldom spoken
Out of nowhere come back again
And I'm restless, darling I'm restless
Waiting for you to look my way
I don't think that I..., the hour is getting late
I can't wait another day

14. Ciao-ciao

You messed up all of my plans
You gave zip, took with both hands
You play down whatever I do
I got stuffed dealing with you, oh

You don't hear half what I say
You break off, turning away
I make moves, keeping in tune
You make waves, always too soon, oh-oh

Ciao-ciao baby now, run around anyhow
Break down, leave town,pick on another sucker
Ciao-ciao show me how you can make it anyhow
I won't be around, you'll have to follow up
Another clown, next town, clean him out, run him round
Ciao-ciao baby now, you'd better find another
You'll find another sucker

You played nights, sleeping all day
You played all the money away
Your first love is living like this
Those shoes, and look at that dress, oh

You wind up all of my friends
You burn them off at both ends
I don't think I can recall
Your being humble at all, oh-oh

Ciao-ciao baby now, run around anyhow
Break down, leave town, we got another sucker
Ciao-ciao show me now you can make it anyhow
I won't be around, you'll have to follow up
Another clown, next town, meany-mouthed, running round
Ciao-ciao baby now, you'd better find another
You'll find another sucker

She's all right, dance all right
She's cool, she's all right

You played nights, sleeping all day
You played all the money away
Your first love is living like this
Those shoes, and look at that dress, oh-oh

Ciao-ciao baby now, run around anyhow
Break down, leave town, we got another sucker
Ciao-ciao show me now you can make it anyhow
I won't be around, you'll have to follow up
Another clown, next town, meany-mouthed, running round
Ciao-ciao baby now, you'd better find another
Youll find another sucker
Ciao-ciao baby now, run around anyhow
Break down, leave town, we got another sucker....

15. Tango

When I look at you something isn't true
What am I to do? Where am I to go?
When I find a way to take the blues away
What a funny day, what a funny world
And then it all just rolls on and on
It's like an echo echoing on

When you look at me what is it you see?
What are you to do? How are we to know?
If there is a way to chase the blues away
Tell me now, today, sooner if you can
But it still just rolls on and on
Just like an echo echoing on

Take me away, take me today
Find me a room, find me a view
If it's to be surely you see
Used to be you, used to be me.

When I look at you something isn't true
What am I to do? Where am I to go?
If there is a way to chase the blues away
Tell me now, today, sooner if you can
But it still just rolls on and on
Just like an echo echoing on

16. Sorry

Whispering, you know I saw you were whispering
Listening, you didn't think I was listening
I got the right things all wrong again, once again
I hurt you, never feeling

Answer me, you know you won't even answer me
After me, I know you won't hurry after me
If you feel that it has to be, as for me
We can't be sure of feelings
Don't fall apart or lose your heart
You're far away, is it clear when I say

Sorry for saying the things I said
Sorry for starting it all
All I can say is sorry to you
And kiss your lips and tell you I love you

Chance today, we had our very last chance today
Romance today, it was our very last chance today
I spin the wheels and I'm fast away, far away
I don't know where but somewhere
Don't fall apart or lose your heart
You're far away, is it clear when I say

Sorry for saying the things I said
Sorry for starting it all
All I can say is sorry to you
And kiss your lips and tell you I love you
Sorry for saying the things I said
Sorry for starting it all
All I can say is sorry to you
And kiss your lips and tell you I love you
Sorry for saying the things I said
Sorry for saying the things I said
Sorry for saying the things I said
