Lyrics

1. BACK TO EARTH

I miss those evenings and the company
The lights go down around this place
The nights are long and go on endlessly
And I forget the human race
But there's one thing that brings me back to Earth
Please tell her

Tell her I need her
Tell her I want her
Tell her I miss her more every day
Tell her I need her
Tell her I want her
Tell her I miss her more every day

I take the days and spend them crazily
The feeling lasts all of my life
And while I thought that would be ecstasy
Caused no surprise but still shines bright
But there's one thing that brings me back to Earth
Please tell her

Tell her I need her
Tell her I want her
Tell her I miss her more every day
Tell her I need her
Ooh, tell her I want her
Tell her I miss her more every day

Oh, time goes, time goes
Solar shadows
I need her with me
All too clearly
Everybody knows

Tell her I need her
Tell her I want her
Tell her I miss her more and more every day
Tell her I need her
Ooh, tell her I want her
Tell her I miss her more and more every day


2. HOLD BACK YOUR LOVE

These long nights as winter comes down
There's fog at the door, you're not around
There's silence, ooh, day after day
The thought of it all slipping away

All my wildest dreams, if they had come true
I'd give them all to you
Ooh, now the darkest nights gather at my side
I'm still confused

So I said is it always the same,
Can you tell from the Start?
Is there always this pain when you're breaking apart?
She said, can you hold back your love till you're certain
It's right
Can you hold back your love for that one special night?

Hold back your love
Hold back your love

These long nights, as winter comes down
There's fog at the door, you're not around
There's silence, ooh, day after day
The thought of it all, slipping away

Is it always the same, can you tell from the start?
Is there always this pain when you're breaking apart?
She said, can you hold back your love, till you're certain
It's right
Can you hold back your love for that one special night?

Hold back your love (hold back your love)
Hold back your love (baby, baby, don't rush me)
Hold back your love (listen to me)
(You know I've told you once before) hold back your love (Ooh)


3. SOLDIER OF THE LINE

Soldier of the line how does it feel
You´re far away from home polishing steel
The sun moves in between the mountain and sky
As dawn puts out it´s fingers splitting them wide
Soldier of the line what do you know

About the other side, they never show
They must be well disguised biding their time
Their armour well prepared so nothing will shine
Soldier of the line would you kill me

There´s something in your eyes stopping you see
They're cloudy and you turn your head away
Hat´s that rolling down your face, are you OK?
Hold back those tears from your eyes

Don´t show those feelings inside
You´re in a murderous playground
War games on a castle wall
You´re in a murderous playground
Crossed out if you dare to fall

Soldier of the line it isn´t fair
You´re bleeding deep inside, nobody cares
Your flag and lance stand proud splintered and red
No movement in the field, the crows will be fed
Soldier of the line you´ve come to the end

You´ll never get to see your mother again
Some unfamiliar place you´re going to stay
An unremembered name an unforgettable day


4. SACRED HOUR

All of my dreams that fell through and had tasted so sour
Take second place in my mind for this one sacred hour
Still I've been moved for so long by this strange
Fascination
Here as I stand all alone in complete concentration

Face through the clouds in the
Gods shine with awe and Splendour
Rise up and roar they approve will they always remember
I hear the voice of the crowd, it will last forever
Locked in my heart kept away like a stolen treasure

I can hear them calling
Hear the crowd applauding
If it's real I like the feeling
If I'm wrong who am I deceiving?

Night after night it repeats an exciting romance
Shared by us all though we met by a fleeting half-chance
Caught, trapped in time no escape
From this powerful dreamworld
Pleased though I am to be here I am lost in the real world
