Lyrics


1. SHE'S THE WOMAN

I’m sitting by my bedside, waiting to attack
Remember me, I’m faster than my shadow
Playing with my pistol, I check the mood it’s in
I hope that it is loaded, and ready for tonight

She is the woman
She is the woman, and she knows it
She is the woman
She is the woman, and she shows it

I know I’m gonna score tonight,
I’m ready for the game
I can’t wait, the time has come for action
My physical condition is really at the top
So put your bets on me tonight,
I’ll never give it up

She is the woman
She is the woman, and she knows it
She is the woman
She is the woman, and she shows it


2. DREAMWORLD

Darkness falls, night closes in
The bringer of light's on his way
Close your eyes, let yourself go
He'll turn your night into day

And feel his power
Yes, it's true what they say
He's come to take you away

Mist is risin', the dream has begun
And time no longer exists
Oh holy kingdom, show me your night
I need your power tonight

You can't resist him
No, you won't even try
As you reach for the sky

Take me away to the starlight
Fly me to the moon
Take me to the corners of the world
Don't let me stay in this dark night
Take me from the gloom
Living in a dreamworld
Every night

Darkness falls, night closes in
The bringer of light's on his way
Close your eyes, let yourself go
He'll turn your night into day
And in the night you can't be anyone
When your dream has begun

Take me away to the starlight
Fly me to the moon
Take me to the corners of the world
Don't let me stay in this dark night
Take me from the gloom
Living in a dreamworld
Every night


3. POWER OF THE ROCK

In ancient times
When evil ruled the land
They spoke of vengeance
The gods were in command

They cursed all men
They cursed the earth and sea
But people were protected
The rock had set them free

Hey, we’ve got the power of the rock
It’s magic
Hey, we’ve got the power of the rock
Can you feel it coming

Inside the cave
Behind the golden door
The rock is guarded
To shine for ever more

There is no limit
To what it will achieve
It holds the future
For those who will believe

Hey, we’ve got the power of the rock
It’s magic
Hey, we’ve got the power of the rock
Can you feel it coming

So if you ever need it
All you have to do is call
And you’d best believe it
The rock is gonna lead us all


4. MAY HEAVEN STRIKE ME DOWN

I was just a dreamer
Acting like a fool
You were reaching out for me
But I was kinda cool
The fear of losing power
Being treated like a slave
Was keeping me away from you
Day after day

She was sleeping I was creeping
Sneaking out the backdoor
Up to a lady she's kinda shady
That didn't matter to me

Cause she's a goer and she's a shower
She took me back to her place
All of a sudden I heard her coming
And guess who came running in

I said, I said
May heaven strike me down
May heaven strike me down
If I ever fool around
May heaven strike me down

Came home early back to my girlie
She wasn't there to greet me
I smelt her perfume
Up to her bedroom
And guess, what did I see

She said, she said
May heaven strike...

No more goin' no more showin'
Cos' we've locked the backdoor
I smell her perfume, she's in her bedroom
And now she's waiting for me

She said, she said
May heaven strike me down
May heaven strike me down
If I ever fool around
May heaven strike me down

May heaven strike me down
May heaven strike me down
If I ever fool around
May heaven strike me down


5. I'LL COME RUNNING

Day after day I keep trying again
To see her or meet her someway
Nothing can keep me from going insane
There must be a better way

No one can stop her, she's moving too fast
With money, glamour and style
No one can catch her, she's not like the rest
She's always acting wild

You just leave them all behind, far behind you
And if you need me baby, just call my name
And I'll come running, I'll come running

Night after night I keep running around
To catch her and tell her to stay
But she is just smiling, she's giving me pain
There seems to be no way
I need to hold her close to me now
Her legs, her body and soul
I want to embrace her, please tell me how
Or is there no chance at all

You just leave them all behind, far behind you
And if you need me baby, just call my name
And I'll come running, I'll come running

You just leave them all behind, far behind you
Yes I know that love is blind, and I will blind you
And now you're only in my mind, I'll remind you
And if you need me baby, just call my name
And I'll come running, I'll come running


6. SECOND TO NONE

When they kicked me out of highschool
I came to know for real
The thought I had to study
Didn't seem to be ideal
I had to be a rockstar
But I went against the grain
All my friends would tell me
"Man I think you are insane"
Everywhere I showed my face
People turned away
Considered me a hopeless case
There's nothing left to say
I knew I was no dreamer
I was born to raise some fun
One day I'm gonna show them
That I am second to none

Do you know my name
Look at me, I was built for fame
I have ways to make you rock
Ain't gonna stop - no more
I'm second to none, I'm the only one

And now I'm standing face to face
With people I once knew
Our memories go back in time
To the fun we had in school
But now we've gone our own ways
We're not that close no more
We're all run out of subjects
I'm feeling so insecure

Do you know my name
Look at me, I was built for fame
I have ways to make you rock
Ain't gonna stop - no more
I'm second to none, I'm the only one

When they kicked me out of highschool
I came to know for real
The thought I had to study
Didn't seem to be ideal
I had to be a rockstar
But I went against the grain
All my friends would tell me
"Man I think you are insane"
They all seem to reject me
For doing what I do
But I don't give a damn
As long as fantasy comes true
So now I know for certain
I am a different breed
And as I draw the curtain
I know I will succeed
I'm second to none


7. ONLY THE WIND

Visions of a summer
That never seemed to end
A date that lasted longer
Than just a one night stand
Flashbacks of a love affair
Like I had never known
Sure that you would never go
To leave me all alone

Only the wind can bring me back in time
Like it was only yesterday
Only the night can give me peace of mind
Why did it ever slip away ?

You and me together
That’s what I had in mind
In love for now and ever
Till the end of time
Visions of a love affair
Never meant to be
Sure that you would never leave
But forever stay with me

Only the wind can bring me back in time
Like it was only yesterday
Only the night can give me peace of mind
Why did it ever slip away ?


8. LOVE LIES BLEEDING

6 a.m., I hear some noises,
Coming from the hall
Far away, distant voices are
Coming through the wall

Half asleep I reach beside me,
But there's no one at all
No idea, where you might be
Still waiting for your call

Don't go it's a serious crime
Don't leave me behind, don't go
Don't break this heart of mine
And drive me out of my mind

Love lies bleeding
No way, I'm gonna beg you, beg you to stay
Love lies bleeding
No way, I'm gonna beg you to stay

6 p.m., I'm all alone, nothing I can do
Couldn't break a heart of stone
My mind is set on you

Don't go, it's a serious crime
Don't leave me behind, don't go
Don't break this heart of mine
And drive me out of my mind

Love lies bleeding
No way, I'm gonna beg you, beg you to stay
Love lies bleeding
No way, I'm gonna beg you to stay


9. WE SHALL ROCK

Forty years ago now
When the first one of its kind
Blew away a million homes
How could they be so blind?

But I'm not goin' to worry
About the things to come
Cos when the final countdown starts
I shall overcome

Oh no, when the end has come
My mind is filled with rock
WE SHALL ROCK
We're gonna do it on rock
WE SHALL ROCK
Oh no, the only thing that's left
For me to do is rock
WE SHALL ROCK
We're gonna do it on rock
WE SHALL ROCK
We're gonna do it on rock

Did you hear this newsflash
They've finally hit the switch
Find yourself a shelter now
Or die in the last ditch

Hey, get your stereo's out
Hey, let me hear you shout
Cos when the final countdown starts
We shall overcome

Oh no, when the end has come
My mind is filled with rock
WE SHALL ROCK
We're gonna do it on rock
WE SHALL ROCK
Oh no, the only thing that's left
For me to do is rock
WE SHALL ROCK
We're gonna do it on rock
WE SHALL ROCK
We're gonna do it on rock
