1. CAN'T GIVE YOU MORE

Now you know this ain't the kind of life for you
It's not the way you thought that it would be
If I could change my way to you
If I could change, it wouldn't be me
And you see

I know I never tried the things I should have done
Oh and time is always passing by
I want to do the things I never done before
So I do try not to tell a lie
When I'm so low, when I'm so high
Yet you cry when I say I can't give you more

First you said you'd never try to slow me down
That ev'rything would work out really fine
But as those walls closed in on us
Your words just fell right out of line
And behind

I know I never tried the things I should have done
And time is always passing by
I want to do the things I never done before
So I do try not to tell a lie
When I'm so low, when I'm so high
Yet you cry when I say I can't give you more

Oh, oh, oh, can't give you more
Can't give any more
Oh, oh, oh, can't give you more
Ain't got any more

Did you figure ours would be an easy thing
Like lazy days of lying in the sun
I told you if you wanted me
That ev'ry day just wouldn't be fun
Now it's done

I know I never tried the thing I should have done
And time is always passing by
I want to do the things I never done before
So I do try not to tell a lie
When I'm so low, when I'm so high
Yet you cry when I say I can't give you more

Oh, oh, oh, can't give you more
Can't give you more
Oh, oh, oh, can't give you more
I ain't got any more
Oh, oh, oh, I ain't got any more
I ain't got any more
Oh, oh, oh, can't give you more
I ain't got any more


2. DEAD IN THE WATER

She’s got to run, she’s got to hide
She’s got her head stuck in a sand dune
She never thinks, she never tries
She doesn’t see that she’s gonna pull through

She used to laugh, she used to cry
She used to play hot as the others
She used to fool, she used to fight
She loved a wind-up on a Saturday night

Don’t you break down, dead in the water
Don’t you leave town now, though you wanna
Don’t you break down, dead in the water
Dead in the water

He is the one, he has the smile
Keeping his cool across the dance floor
He moves around, he moves away
They move together the rest of the night

He hits the spot, she fits the bill
He tries it on, maybe she wants to
He books a room, a takeaway
Is this the answer to all of their problems?

Don’t you break down, dead in the water
Don’t you leave town now, though you wanna
Don’t you break down, down in the water

The longest day must end, but that’s another time
Perhaps another life, we may be here again
The longest day must end, we take it as we find
But if we never try we may be here again

The longest day must end, we take it as we find
But if we never try we may be here again

She’s waking up, she’s in a dream
The world is gone, left her to wonder
Did it begin? When will it end?
She can’t believe that it didn’t come true

She needs to laugh, she needs to cry
She needs to play hot as the others
She used to fool, she used to fight
She loved a wind-up on a Saturday night

Don’t you break down dead in the water
Don’t you leave town now though you wanna
Don’t you break down
Dead in the water
Dead in the water


3. MYSTERIES FROM THE BALL

Running along on the side of the waterfront
Someone is looking at me
Trying to turn me around like an enemy

Trying to turn me away
Holding on tight to the side of reality
Is it a vision I see?
Leading me on to the pictures that I wanna see

Fantasy lovingly restored to me
Magic moments from the past, magic moments
Mysteries from the ball

Back at the table it's getting too hot for me
Ice is afloat on my wings
Caught in the thunder and lightning of everything

Caught in the everyday things
Moving on up is the feeling inside of me
Losing my grip on the floor
Holding on tight to the hand that has given me more

Fantasy lovingly restored to me
Magic moments from the past, magic moments
Mysteries from the ball

Running along on the side of the waterfront
Someone is looking at me
Trying to turn me around like an enemy

Trying to turn me away
Moving on up is the feeling inside of me
Losing my grip on the floor
Holding on tight to the hand that is giving me more

Fantasy lovingly restored to me
Magic moments from the past, magic moments
Mysteries from the ball lovingly restored to me
Magic moments from the past lovingly restored to me
Mysteries from the ball
