Lyrics

1. ROCK YOU LIKE A HURRICANE

It's early morning
The sun comes out
Last night was shaking
And pretty loud
My cat is purring
And scratches my skin
So what is wrong
With another sin
The bitch is hungry
She needs to tell
So give her inches
And feed her well
More days to come
New places to go
I've got to leave
It's time for a show

[Chorus]:

Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane

My body is burning
It starts to shout
Desire is coming
It breaks out loud
Lust is in cages
Till storm breaks loose
Just have to make it
With someone I choose
The night is calling
I have to go
The wolf is hungry
He runs the show
He's licking his lips
He's ready to win
On the hunt tonight
For love at first sting

[Chorus]:

Here I am, rock you like a hurricane (X 4)

Rock you like a hurricane !!

[Solo]

It's early morning
The sun comes out
His leak was shaking
And pretty loud
My cat is purring
And scratches my skin
So what is wrong
With another sin
Desire is coming
I have to go
The wolf is hungry
He runs the show
He's licking his lips
He's ready to win
On the hunt tonight
For love at first sting

[Chorus)

Here I am, rock you like a hurricane (x4)
Here I am !!


2. I CAN'T EXPLAIN

I got a feeling inside
It's a certain kind
I feel hot and cold
Deep down in my soul

I said I can't explain
I'm feeling good enough baby

I'm dizzy in my head
And I'm feeling blue
Things you say but maybe they're true
Getting funny dreams again and again
I know what it means but

[Chorus]:

I can't explain
I think it's love
I'm trying to say to you
When I feel blue
But I can't explain (can't explain)
Just hear what I'm saying baby (can't explain)

[Solo]

I'm dizzy in the head
And I'm feeling bad
Things you say got me real mad
Getting funny dreams again and again
I know what it means but

[Chorus]:

I can't explain
I think it's love
I'm trying to say to you
When I feel blue
But I can't explain (can't explain)
Just hear me one more time baby (can't explain)

[Solo]

I'm dizzy in the head
And I'm feeling bad
Things you say got me real mad
Getting funny dreams again and again
I know what it means but

[Chorus]:

I can't explain
I think it's love
I'm trying to say to you
When I feel blue
But I can't explain (can't explain)
Just hear me one more time baby (can't explain)

She drive me out of my mind (can't explain)
She drive me out of my mind (can't explain)
She drive me out of my mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mind (can't explain)
You drive me out of my mind (can't explain)
You drive me out of my mind (can't explain)

Oooh yeah, I can't explain
I can't explain baby


3. RHYTHM OF LOVE

Let's spend the night together
I know you want it too
The magic of the moment
Is what I've got for you
The heartbeat of this night
Is made to lose control
And there is something in your eyes
That's longing for some more
Let us find together
The beat we're looking for

[Chorus]:

The rhythm of love
Keeps me dancing on the road
The rhythm of love
Got the groove that hits the bone
The rhythm of love
Is the game I'm looking for
The rhythm of love
Is the heartbeat of my soul

Let's reach the top together
One night will never do
Exploding shot of pleasure
Is what I've got for you
Why don't you close your eyes
And let your feeling grow
I make you feel the taste of life
Until your love will flow
Let us find together
The beat we're longing for

[Chorus]:

The rhythm of love
Keeps me dancing on the road
The rhythm of love
Got the groove that hits the bone
The rhythm of love
Is the game I'm looking for
The rhythm of love
Is the heartbeat of my soul

[Solo]

[Chorus] (x4):

The rhythm of love
Keeps me dancing on the road
The rhythm of love
Got the groove that hits the bone
The rhythm of love
Is the game I'm looking for
The rhythm of love
Is the heartbeat of my soul

Let us find together
The beat we're looking for …


4. BIG CITY NIGHTS

When the daylight is falling down into the night
And the sharks try to cut a big piece out of life
It feels alright to go out to catch an outrageous thrill
But it's more like spinning wheels of fortune
Which never stand still

[Chorus]:

Big city, big city nights
You keep me burning
Big city, big city nights

When the sunlight is rising up in my eyes
And the long night has left me back at somebody's side
It feels alright for a long sweet minute like hours before
But it's more like looking out for something
I can't find anymore

[Chorus]:

Big city, big city nights
You keep me burning
Big city, big city nights
Always yearning

There is no dream
That you can't make true, if you're looking for love
But there's no girl
Who's burning the ice away from my heart
Maybe tonight!

[Chorus]:

Big city, big city nights
You keep me burning
Big city, big city nights
Always yearning
Big city, big city nights
You keep me burning
Big city, big city nights
Always yearning


5. LOVEDRIVE

A girl to drive a car to love
The music rocks me down the motorway
My whore's got wings we're taking off
And I can't stop this flight of speed today

It's a lovedrive on wheels of fire
A lovedrive just one desire love
You drive me crazy babe

It's a lovedrive on wheels of fire
A lovedrive just one desire love
You drive me crazy babe

The city lights of London town
Are far away my hand is on her wing (on her wing)
I stop the car and she gets down
I'd like to show why Scorpions got a sting

It's a lovedrive on wheels of fire
A lovedrive just one desire love
Sweet love, you drive me crazy babe

It's a lovedrive on wheels of fire
A lovedrive just one desire love
Sweet love, you drive me crazy babe

It's a lovedrive on wheels of fire
A lovedrive just one desire love
You drive me crazy babe

It's a lovedrive on wheels of fire
A lovedrive just one desire love
Sweet love, you drive me crazy babe

You drive me crazy babe
You drive me crazy babe
You drive me crazy babe
You drive me crazy baby

It's a lovedrive


6. IS THERE ANYBODY THERE?

Open my mind let me find new vibrations
Tell me the way I must take to reach my destination
And a place where I can stay
Where is the love of my life couldn't find her
Show me the way to find back to myself
'Cause I'm nowhere in the darkness of these days

[Chorus]:

Is there anybody there who feels that vibration
Who shows me the way to my love
Is there anybody there with that inclination
To bring back to sun to my heart

I find myself in a state of confusion
Life's like a pantomime trick or a laser illusion
Where's a place that I can stay
Save me don't let me get lost in the ocean
I need your help everyday to control my emotions
In the darkness of these days

[Chorus]:

Is there anybody there who feels that vibration
Who shows me the way to my love
Is there anybody there with that inclination
To bring back the sun to my heart

[Solo]

[Chorus]:

Is there anybody there who feels that vibration
Who shows me the way to my love
Is there anybody there with that inclination
To bring back the sun to my heart


7. HOLIDAY

[Chorus]

Let me take you far away
You'd like a holiday
Let me take you far away
You'd like a holiday

Exchange the cold days for the sun
A good time and fun
Let me take you far away
You'd like a holiday

(Chorus]:

Let me take you far away
You'd like a holiday
Let me take you far away
You'd like a holiday

Exchange your troubles for some love
Wherever you are
Let me take you far away
You'd like a holiday

Longing for the sun you will come
To the island without name
Longing for the sun be welcome
On the island many miles away from home
Be welcome on the island without name
Longing for the sun you will come
To the island many miles away from home (away from home X 3)

[Solo]


8. STILL LOVING YOU

Time, it needs time
To win back your love again
I will be there, I will be there
Love, only love
Can bring back your love someday
I will be there, I will be there

Fight, babe, I'll fight
To win back your love again
I will be there, I will be there
Love, only love
Can break down the wall someday
I will be there, I will be there

If we'd go again
All the way from the start
I would try to change
The things that killed our love
Your pride has built a wall, so strong
That I can't get through
Is there really no chance
To start once again
I'm loving you

Try, baby try
To trust in my love again
I will be there, I will be there
Love, our love
Just shouldn't be thrown away
I will be there, I will be there

If we'd go again
All the way from the start
I would try to change
The things that killed our love
Your pride has built a wall, so strong
That I can't get through
Is there really no chance
To start once again

If we'd go again
All the way from the start
I would try to change
The things that killed our love
Yes, I've hurt your pride, and I know
What you've been through
You should give me a chance
This can't be the end
I'm still loving you
I'm still loving you
I'm still loving you, I need your love
I'm still loving you
Still loving you baby ooh !

Solo

Still loving you, I need your love
Still loving you, I need your love ooh ! (x2)
I need your love (x2)


9. NO ONE LIKE YOU

Girl, it's been a long time that we've been apart
Much too long for a man who needs love
I miss you since I've been away
Babe, it wasn't easy to leave you alone
It's getting harder each time that I go
If I had the choice, I would stay

[Chorus]:

There's no one like you
I can't wait for the nights with you
I imagine the things we'll do
I just wanna be loved by you

No one like you
I can't wait for the nights with you
I imagine the things we'll do
I just wanna be loved by you

Girl, there are really no words strong enough
To describe all my longing for love
I don't want my feelings restrained
Ooh, babe, I just need you like never before
Just imagine you'd come through this door
You'd take all my sorrow away

[Chorus]:

There's no one like you
I can't wait for the nights with you
I imagine the things we'll do
I just wanna be loved by you

No one like you
I can't wait for the nights with you
I imagine the things we'll do
I just wanna be loved by you

[Solo]

[Chorus] (x2)


10. BLACKOUT

I realize I missed a day
But I'm too wrecked to care anyway
I look around and see this face
What the hell have I lost my taste
Don't want to find out
Just want to cut out

My head explodes, my ears ring
I can't remember just where I've been
The last thing that I recall
I got lost in a deep black hole
Don't want to find out
Just want to cut out

[Chorus] (x4)

Blackout
I really had a blackout

I grab my things and make my run
On the way out, another one
Would like to know before I stop
Did I make it or did I flop
Don't want to find out
Just want to get out

[Chorus] (x4)

Blackout
I really had a blackout

Don't want to find out
Just want to get out

Blackout
I really had a blackout!


11. ANOTHER PIECE OF MEAT

Met her down at that Tokyo place
Loved her pretty face
I said: "Hey, you're alright, so alright!"
I was sitting in her car
She told me: "You're a star and I know you."

She said: "Take me home."
I need love so strong
Come on and knock me out, oh!
I've been too long alone
I want hot love, you know, and I need it now!"

She said: "Hey, let's go, don't put on a show
You're just another piece, another piece of meat"
She said: "Hey, let's go, don't put on a show
You're just another piece --
Another piece of meat."

Next day she took me out
To a rough kick boxing show
Violence really turned her on, oh no
She was screaming for more blood
Loved it more than any drug I couldn't stand it

I said: "Hey, let's go, don't put on a show
You're just another piece, another piece of meat"
Said: "Hey, let's go, don't put on a show
You're just another piece --
Another piece of meat." (X 3)


12. YOU GIVE ME ALL I NEED

New love is blind
Why don't you see
You hurt me inside, you're killing me
It makes me sad all the time
To see you around with all these guys
My heart's in pain
I need you so
My love's the same
So please don't go

You give me all I need
You give me all I need
You give me all I need
You give me all I need

Let's try again
There's still romance
We'll start a new life, take a chance
There are so many ways
Please don't forget it anyday
My heart's in pain
I need you so
My love's the same
So please don't go

You give me all I need
You give me all I need
You give me all I need
You give me all I need


13. HEY YOU

Hey you, I'm in love with your eyes
And the sound of your name
Hey you, I'm in love with your smile
And the way you're dressed today

Hey you, well I like the way you walk
Just like a star moves on stage
Hey you, well I like the way you talk
You're really calm for your age

I really die
You're driving me wild
I really die
I'm in love 100 times

I really die
You're driving me wild
I really die
I'm in love 100 times
To be your answer

Hey you, I said you know what's going on
Do you know what I mean
Hey you, if he wants you better come
This school is up to me

I really die
You're driving me wild
I really die
I'm in love 100 times

I really die
You're driving me wild
I really die
I'm in love 100 times
To be your answer


14. THE ZOO

The job is done and I go out
Another boring day
I leave it all behind me now
So many worlds away

I meet my girl, she's dressed to kill
And all we gonna do
Is walk around to catch the thrill
On streets we call the zoo

We eat the night, we drink the time
Make our dreams come true
And hungry eyes are passing by
On streets we call the zoo

We eat the night, we drink the time
Make our dreams come true
And hungry eyes are passing by
On streets we call the zoo

Enjoy the zoo
And walk down 42nd Street
You wanna be excited too
And you will feel the heat

We eat the night, we drink the time
Make our dreams come true
And hungry eyes are passing by
On streets we call the zoo

We eat the night, we drink the time
Make our dreams come true
And hungry eyes are passing by
On streets we call the zoo


15. CHINA WHITE

Sometimes it seems the good times
Never will return
A lot has changed, babe
'Cause evil rules the world

You said you're looking for a place
Where there's no hate
Oh, babe, it really makes no sense
To escape

How long will it take
To make the world a flaming star
How long will it take
Till they stop their senseless wars
How long will it take
Till everybody will understand
That we need to fill our hearts with love again

The only future we've got
Exists right now
Let's take the time, babe
As long as the world is turning 'round

How long will it take
To make the earth a fireball
How long will it take
Till no more life exists at all
How long will it take
Till everybody will understand
That we need to fill our hearts with love again

It's up to you
To fight the evil in your mind
It's up to you
The more love you give, the more you'll find
The more love you give, the more you'll find

Don't make the world a flaming stra
Stop, stop all these senseless wars
How long will it take
Till everybody will understand
That we need to fill our hearts with love again
