1. WILD ON THE RUN

Come on

Busted
Bleeding
Nothing to believe in
I've taken just as much as I'm going to take

And I've been stood up
Knocked down
Had enough of this town
When midnight comes we'll make this prison shake

Don't you make a sound 'till the lights go down

Wild on the run
Wild on the run, yeah
Wild on the run

Look out
Don't slow down
Run before we're found out
'Cause there ain't no fairy tale, no perfect life

Well, you got one chance
Don't stop
Jump across the rooftops
We'll close our eyes and dance away this life

Don't you make a sound 'till the lights go down

Wild on the run
Wild on the run
Wild on the run

Anyplace you want to go
Only one way that we know
Rip a hole into this lonely night
Rip a hole into the night, come on

Busted

Yeah, don't you make a sound 'till the lights go down

Wild on the run
Wild on the run
We're wild on the run, yeah
Oh, wild on the run, let's go
Wild on the run, yeah
We're wild on the run

Busted
Bleeding
Stood up
Knocked down
I can't take it no more

Whoa I've been busted
Bleeding
Stood up
And knocked down, baby
I can't take it no more


2. CHAIN OF LOVE

Across a crowded street I watched her beg
Another tired angel fate had forgotten
Give me love, give me hope, give me some peace on earth

She cried out loud
But in her wounded eyes I saw a spark
And it's burning inside me
Reaching out to ease the pain, she touched my heart

No weight can break this chain of love
Just sing it over and over again
No weight can break this chain of love
Just sing it over and over

Across a barren field I watched him weep
Another farm in the heartland held up for ransom
Let me live, let me give, God let this land survive
He prayed out loud
Standing up against the wind to build a fire, yeah

No weight can break this chain of love
Just sing it over and over again
No weight can break this chain of love
Just sing it over and over

No weight can break this chain, oh yeah
No weight can break this chain of love, ooh yeah

Across the seven seas blows a wind of change
And all our fears will fade
As the spirit of love is rising up around us

No weight can break this chain of love
No weight can break the chain of love
No weight can break this chain of love
No weight, no weight can break the chain
No weight can break this chain of love
Just sing it over and over again
No weight can break this chain of love
Just sing it over and over again
No weight can break this chain of love


3. CRAWLING BACK

If I come crawling back to you
Dragging my heart like you want me to
Is that what you mean by starting over?
If I come begging on my knees
Pleading your forgiveness, baby please
Is that really all that you want from me?

This time's no different than before
I gave you my heart, but you took my soul
And if my pride is what you desire

Don't talk, don't say anything
And don't cry, 'cause I don't hear you crying no more
Don't try and tell me that everything will change
'Cause I'm not crawling back to you again

Don't try to build a wall around me now
Or think you'll change the way I feel somehow
Just so you can prove to me who's stronger
But I, I won't take it any longer

This time's no different than before
Love won't leave me blind no more
And I won't bow down to desire

Don't talk, don't say anything
And don't cry, 'cause I don't hear you crying no more
Don't try and tell me that everything will change
'Cause I'm not crawling back to you again

Don't talk, don't say anything
And don't cry, 'cause I don't hear you crying no more
Don't try and tell me that everything will change
'Cause I'm not crawling back again

Don't talk, don't say anything at all
'Cause I don't hear you crying no more
Don't try and tell me that everything will change
'Cause I'm not crawling back to you again

No, no no no
No I won't come crawling back again
Not on my knees, no way
Won't come crawling back again
I'm not crawling back again
Won't come crawling back again
I'm not crawling
No way
Won't come crawling back again
I'm not crawling back again, no no
I'm not crawling


4. SISTER OF MERCY

Sister of mercy
As the sun goes dark and the wind blows silent
Are these just signs of the times
Sister of mercy
When the seas lay calm and all goes quiet
A storm, it comes to mind

A burning in my heart
Like a ring of fire
A yearning in my heart, yeah

Sister of mercy, wrap your arms around me now
Sister of mercy, come on won't you save me now
Yeah

Sister of mercy
In the wake of the flood, in the hurricane's eye
Please don't desert me
Mercy, mercy
I pray for the dove in hope she'll fly
'Cause we need a miracle now

A burning in my heart
Like a ring of fire
A yearning in my heart, well

Sister of mercy, wrap your arms around me now
Sister of mercy

In a rough and raging ocean there's a beacon in the storm
She'll send a light to guide you, that's my little sister
Like a worn and weary soldier in a silent tug of war
Ooh, she'll pull you through the darkness before the dawn
Yeah, alright, alright

Oh, sister of mercy
I'm no man of God, but I'm all for trying
I'm on my knees tonight
Oh, mercy, mercy
Cries a desperate man in his time of dying
Save me, just name you price
Yeah

Sister of mercy
Put your arms around me
Oh won't you save me, well

Sister of mercy put your arms around me
Won't you save me
Sister of mercy put your arms around me
Won't you save me
Sister of mercy put your arms around me
Won't you save me now


5. STAY WITH ME

When I look into your eyes
And they warm me just on sight
It's an experience
I'd dare share with anyone else
Just a telephone apart
There must be ringing in your heart
There must be
'Cause I've called to you most every night

Your touch is like fire and ice
Rolled into one and multiplied twice
Well, you've given me the strength that I need
But without your heart I'm just weak
So I ask you

Stay with me
Stay with me
Stay with me if only for a lifetime
Stay with me
Or at least please stay the night
And be there in the morning

Do you sense just how I feel
As my desire for you spills
Out from my hands
And into the candlelight

Oh, like shadows we fall and we rise
Words from your lips ring endless in time
You've given me the will to believe
But it's still your heart that I need
So I'll ask you

Stay with me
Stay with me
Stay with me if only for a lifetime
Stay with me
Or at least please stay the night
And be there in the morning
Be there in the morning

Ooh, your touch is like fire and ice
Rolled into one and multiplied twice
Now, you've given me the strength that I need
But it's for your heart that I plead
Oh, I'm askin' you, I'm begging you to

Stay with me
Stay with me
Stay with me if only for a lifetime
Stay with me
Or at least please stay the night
And be there in the morning

Stay with me
Stay with me
Stay with me if only forever
And be there in the morning
Stay with me
Ooh, stay with me if only just tonight

'Cause when I look into your eyes


6. SOMEWHERE SHE WAITS

Somewhere she waits for love
Somewhere she waits for love

Hush my little darling don't you cry
Somewhere long lost words from a soft lullaby
In a world where love can hurt you, dreams desert you
Answers hard to find

Full of faith still something's missing
No one to run to

Somewhere she waits for love
With the open eyes of a little child
She's looking back for love
And the dreams she left behind
In a lullaby

Kill the TV set, switch off the lights
Keep the world outside locked away for the night
Smokey bars and cheap seductions, false surrenders
Nothing much to lose

All grown up the world seems colder
So sad and lonely

Somewhere she waits for love
With the open eyes of a little child
She's looking back for love
And the dreams she left behind
In a lullaby

She looks back for love
She looks back for love

A promise of yesterday surrounds her
As she waits there for love
Ooh, close your eyes the spell is broken
Your dreams are calling

Somewhere she waits for love
With the open eyes of a little child
She's looking back for love
And the dreams she left behind

Oh, somewhere she waits for love
With the open eyes of a little child
She's looking back for love
And the dreams she left behind, well
Somewhere she waits for love
Somewhere she waits for love



7. WORLD INSIDE YOU

I love to watch you walk
So raw like a jungle cat prowls
I love the way you talk
You whisper your secrets out loud, ooh
I'm tangled in your eyes
Nothing can stop me now
Throw my caution to the wind
Be my savior, be my sin

I'll follow where you lead
I hunger, thirst, and bleed
And I will touch the world inside you
Love, I fall down on my knees
I'd borrow, steal, I plead
Just to touch the world inside you

Slide through the darkness
A slip of the tongue on your heart, ooh
Creep like a steam-train
Nothing can tear us apart, ooh
So tell me you love me
Just for a little while
Come on honey let me in
Be my savior, be my sin

I'll follow where you lead
I hunger, thirst, and bleed
And I will touch the world inside you
Love, I fall down on my knees
I'll borrow, steal and plead
Just to have the world inside you
Ooh, the world inside you
I fall down on my knees, yes I will
Borrow, still and plead

Ooh, yeah

Throw my caution to the wind
You're my savior, you're my sin
I'll follow where you lead
I hunger, thirst and bleed
And I will touch the world inside you
Oh, love, I fall down on my knees
I borrow, steal and plead
Just to touch the world inside you

Honey, I need the world inside you
I got to touch the girl inside you


8. RESTLESS ONE

And so she stands
With her hands in her pockets and her hair
Tossing 'round in the wind

All alone
At the edge of a station
She'll never see again

Oh, she's a restless one
Oh, she's a restless one

Well, the tired diesel
Punched a hole in the sunrise
With a whistle and a cloud of steam

Yeah, she steps on
Dragging an old brown satchel
To another place she's never been

Oh, she's a restless one
Oh, she's a restless one

And she knows there will be time
For a thousand indecisions
Nothing but time and a prayer in this sleepy old town
Time waits on nobody's wishes
She throws away her promises to see what was out there

She stands alone
One foot on the station
And the other foot upon the train

Well, she's stuck between
Her lifelong ambition
And the life she'll never see again

Oh, she's a restless one
Oh, she's a restless one
Oh, she's a restless one

Watching her life passing by
Restless one
Right in front of her eyes

Oh, she's a restless one


9. NEVER ENOUGH

I get caught up in the moment
Like a prisoner in a cage
I try to hold back my emotions
'Till the hunger fades away
But desire is the master
And she knows that I'll give in, oh
I can almost hear your heartbeat
Taste the salt on your skin

Hypnotized you're my one possession
And I was saved by the heat of your touch

But once is never enough
No once is never enough
Nothing seems to satisfy, yeah
It's never enough

I get hot under the collar
And my hands begin to sweat
'Till I'm drowning in temptation
And the best ain't over yet
But I get restless and impatient
Until I bite the hand that feeds, yeah
Well I get tired of the waiting
But never tire of the need, no

You give all you can but still I want more
Your everything, girl, is never too much, in fact it's

Never enough
Once is never enough
Nothing seems to satisfy, yeah
It's never enough, no

I grab one hand in front of the other
When it comes down to love, whoa
Falling down into the darkness below
Until it swallows me up, whoa

Crucified for thinking I could possess you
Then I was saved by the heat of your touch
But once is never

No, once is never enough
Once is never enough
Nothing seems to satisfy, yeah
It's never enough, no
Once is never enough
No, once is never enough
When it comes down to makin' up
Yeah, it's never, never, never, never enough
I can't get enough of that good thing baby


10. CLOSE YOUR EYES

You ask a question
It's only a disguise
You don't want an answer, no no
Just an alibi
Always running to the brightest light
No shelter from the dark
Now the candle burns a raging fire
Like a falling star

Hey, see the storm stretch across the sky
Now the river's running high
And the rain's gonna fall
Is there something you believe in
When you close your eyes, my my

You want a witness
To watch water turn to wine, yeah
You want forgiveness
For all those desperate nights
Always dancing from the highest wire
Still heaven's out of reach
Now you jumped from faith into desire
The truth is gonna make you bleed

Hey, see the storm stretch across the sky
Now the river's running high
And the rain's gonna fall
Is there something you believe in
When you close your eyes

Something's lost the wires got crossed
You just don't know which way to run

Is there something you believe in
Is there something you believe in
Is there something you believe in
Is there something you believe in
Is there something you believe in
Believe in

Yeah, see the storm stretch across the sky
Now the river's running high
And so the rain is gonna fall
Is there something you believe in
Something you believe in,

When you close your eyes
Close your eyes
Close your eyes (is there something you believe in)
Close your eyes
Close your eyes (is there something you believe in)
Close your eyes (is there something you believe in)
Close your eyes
Is there something you believe in

All right
