1. TIME AFTER TIME

You were young and so naive
Was a murder in the 1st degree, yeah
I couldn't help the beating of my heart
It was something made in heaven
That was something I couldn't resist, no
And nothing could ever pull our world apart

But you cried in the rain, played the fool, yeah
And I'm still running to you

Time after time I tell you I'm sorry
Those are the words I'm saying to you time after time

You were, I was given one more try
Gave your body and soul desire
I did my best to win your love again
But I didn't see it coming
It came up from behind
And left me lying, left me lying for dead

Just when it seemed you were missing
You're begging to come in

Time after time you tell me you're sorry
Those are the words I'm hearing again
Time after time there's no need to worry
Love will return time after time

No matter what you say, I know you'll be back again

Time after time you tell me you're sorry
Those are the words I'm hearing again
Time after time there's no need to worry
Love will return time after time

Time after time say that you're leaving
Those are the words I'm hearing, hearing again
Time after time I can't stop believing
Love will return time after time


2. COMIN' HOME

I've been away so long
Never thought I'd return
But somehow I had to get back to see you again
I've been thru some bad times
Yes, I've been thru hell
Too many days when I've cried in vain

I'm riding on the wings of passion, so high!
And out of the darkness I'm guided by a light

Now I'm comin' home, comin' home
Gotta find my way back home, comin' home

There is no mystery
To what the future holds in store
Cause who is in need of a key to an open door?
But I'm not afraid
Cause I see the light
It's worth all the tears that I cried in vain

I'm riding on the wings of passion, so high!
And out of the darkness I'm guided by a light

Now I'm comin' home, comin' home
Gotta find my way back home, comin' home

Yes, I'm riding on the wings of passion, so high!
And out of the darkness I'm guided by a light
I see a light, a light shining bright

Now I'm comin' home, comin' home
Gotta find my way back home, comin' home

Now I'm comin' home, comin' home
Gotta find my way back home, comin' home

Comin' home, comin' home...


3. MYSTERIOUS (THIS TIME IT'S SERIOUS)

Girl, what's on your mind?
You got something that's ailing you
I'm dying for your every touch
Your fantasy, if you want me to be

Can't let you go - Can't let you go
It's so mysterious
So let me know - Cause I gotta know
This time it's serious

All the years gone by
Seems I've been walking alone
But now with you by my side
I'll claim your love, show you what I'm made of

Can't let you go - Can't let you go
It's so mysterious
So let me know - Cause I gotta know
This time it's serious

You fill my mind with things to say, yes, you do
I need your love inside of me, inside of me

So where do I draw the line?
Tell me what do you want me to do
Cause I've been waiting so long
If you feel the same, forever keep the flame

Can't let you go - Can't let you go
It's so mysterious
So let me know - Cause I gotta know
This time it's serious

Can't let you go - Can't let you go
It's so mysterious
So let me know - Cause I gotta know
This time it's serious

Can't let you go - Can't let you go
Can't let you go - Can't let you go


4. IF U WOULD ONLY BE MY FRIEND

Same old story, but in my own words
It's just pain and misery
Cause that's all i am, just another man
Begging for sympathy
Sometimes i say to myself
That i'm dreaming, that nobody cares any more
But now i've got to believe that someday soon
I'll find someone worth waiting for

[Chorus:]
If you would only, be my friend,
I would love you till the end
And thru good times and bad times too,
I'll stand by you, till the end

I once knew love but it's in her past
Why do good things never last
It's so hard to find the loss
I feel inside, god only knows i've tried

But now i've got to move on
There's no turning back,
Can't live on memories
So here i am getting down on my knees
Somebody save me please

[Chorus]

Just like an angel who's fallen out of grace
God don't seem to hear me calling
Sometimes i feel like i'm the only one here,
Is there anybody out there? yeah!

Here i am another lonely man,
Begging for sympathy
One day i know i'll find someone,
Someone who believes in me


5. ALL OR NOTHING

Jenny was a young girl, so innocent and fine
Reaching out to find her dreams, leave it all behind
Armed with the desire, ain't never gonna stop
Gotta beg, steal and borrow, to make it to the top
Chorus:
No denying, it's a nervous push and shove
But one thing that's for sure
It's all or nothing, no time for rules
All or nothing, no time for fools
And while you're fighting for your life
Show no mercy, it's all or nothing, do or die

Jimmy was a gambler, a roller of the dice,
Shooting time and time again, fortune in his eyes,
Forget that killer instinct they all said he would need
Because with him there's pain and pleasure, no choice in between

Living for the danger of turning up an empty hand
But one thing that's for sure


6. ALL I WANT

It's going round that you're leaving me,
But i've tried everything to make you stay, ,
I'm blinded by a fading memory, ,
Of hoping you'll be back again someday
Chorus:
I'd give up everything just to hold you once again,
I'm praying for a reason to make you understand, ,
And if i knew the answer, rest assured i'd let you in

All i want it's plain to say,
Remember the yesterdays, take a chance on the dream,
All i want it's in my eyes,
Believe in a miracle, somewhere in the night

Oh, i called your number, but you just let it ring, ,
Maybe it's because your're not alone tonight,
It's getting harder as the days go bye,
And this emptiness, is killing me inside

All i'm asking now, is that you help me ease the pain,
I need your love just to shelter me from the pouring rain,
Tell me everything is gonna be alright someday,
All i want it's plain to say,
Remember the yesterdays, take a chance on the dream,
All i want it's in my eyes,
Believe in a miracle, somewhere in the night


7. U DONE ME WRONG

Dawning wither, you've got me burning
It's such a critical condition
All or nothing or so i'm learning
But it wasn't my decision

[Chorus:]
I can't believe what you're doing to me
I guessed it from the start, yeah
You took my love and you threw it away
Now i know, you done me wrong

Stop pretending, there's no reason
Somehow you just were never satisfied
I was a victim, in your act of treason,
But now this comes as no surprise

[Chorus] (x2)

Just close that door as you're walking away
I won't be a fool no more,
I'll say it once, and i'll say it again
Now i know, you've done me wrong


8. I'LL SET YOUR HOUSE ON FIRE

Hey baby i got something i want ya to know
Well, my luck is changing
And everything thats yours will soon be mine
Mmm... yes it will
So now you're learning and now i won't be the one
That's left behind (and that's the truth)
Cause i will lock your door
And throw away the key,

[Chorus:]
C'mon baby, well, i'll set your house on fire
Now i'm taking over
And you won't see me, before it's too late
You had your chances

But now my time has come and i just can't wait
Now check this out i'm gonna make it happen
Cause i'm that kind of man, if you can stop me, here i am
You must be crazy, now if you think that you can hold me down

[Chorus]

You can't talk to me, cause thats how its gonna be
Well, i'll set your, set your, house on fire


9. GIVE ME A SIGN

Hypnotized, in my mind
Something bout the way you move
I can feel your body burning thru
These hands of mine
Feel you up, feel you down
O'hh you've got a vain emotion
I can sense temptation like it was our 1st time
Dirty days, dirty lies tell me where do we go
I need to know girl, if our climates right
Give a sign in the night
We can take it all the way
Visions of paradise... pictures of dreams... come true

[Chorus:]
Give a sign in the night
Long enough to hear me say
Anything oh! anytime now baby
You gotta give me a sign
Why don't you give me a sign

I'm in love, fill me up
Sending thru the walls of passion
And a silent whisper must have
Found the crown of desire

All the names and all your lies,
But i still just don't know
Memories we made don't justify
Give a sign in the night
We can take it all the way

[Chorus]

I need to see the writing in your eyes


10. LOVECHILD

I caught her staring, a psychedelic dancer,
Green velvet down to her thighs,
We took a ride in a blissful celebration,
A zillion roses fell down from the sky,
Romanced about the garden,
With the beads around our soul

Something bout the way she took my love inside,
We took a stroll in the sun, danced by the moonlight,
Visions of brubaker light up dreams

Now rivers may run, but skies fall to blue nights,
Cause nothings as true as, my love child,
I kissed her sweet lips, somehow knew the answers to all,
The everyday questions of love

Now years may go bye, still i know we'll be together,
It's written in the rising stars above

[Chorus:]
I swear i'd surely die if she would ever walk away,
I fear we never wake from this recurring dream,
We'll take a stroll in the sun, dance by the moonlight

Visions of brubaker light up dreams,
Rivers may run, but skies fall to blue nights,
Cause nothings as true as my love child


11. LONG WAY TO GO

Last night, i had a dream
Of how we lived as one, society
No wars, no pain, no hunger
I hope i'll be around to see it become reality
I've even thought about our childrens dreams
And what we've left behind
I do believe we've got a long way to go
But not a lot of time

A never ending road to paradise
Now, will we ever be there
We got a long way to go

It's not too late for a new beginning
Read between the lines, of love and hate
Before we go we've gotta live together

The futures what we make it, it's ours today
We gotta join our hands in unity
Make them standing strong

We gotta come together you and me
Rearranging right from wrong
A never ending road to paradise

Can you take me there?
Gotta long way to go!
Before we go we've gotta live together
The futures ours today
We gotta join our hands in unity

And make them standing strong
We gotta come together you and me
Rearranging right from wrong
The never ending road to paradise

Can you take me there?
Gotta long way to go
We've gotta long way to go
Such a long way to go
