Vanderbuyst : At the Crack of Dawn
Lyrics
1. AT THE CRACK OF DAWN
Crimson delight awaits
Incense perfumes embrace
And the darkness is a sign it won't be long
Chaos relleased as the drum starts to drone
Bless me with your enchanting melodies
Enlighten me with your blasphemous verities
And I unleash myself
As I drink from your well
At the crack of dawn
At the crack of dawn
Crimson delight for the braves
Summon the devil at the altar of bones and stakes
To sacrifice
Bless me with your enchanting melodies
Enlighten me with your blasphemous verities
And I unleash myself
As I drink from your well
At the crack of dawn
Bless me with your enchanting melodies
Enlighten me with your blasphemous verities
And I unleash myself
As I drink from your well
At the crack of dawn
At the crack of dawn
2. ROLLER-COASTER RIDE
Nobody told me live is that fast
Nobody warned me, easy comes to pass
I was a young boy and I had a dream
I was hungry but took more than I could eat
High as a kite, no feet on the ground
Turbulence flight stars abound
Roller-coaster ride and I'm hanging upside down
And here I go again for another round
Got to kill my darlings, got to start from scratch
Betray my beloved ones with a stab in the back
I'm losing track of where I am
I'm losing grip for what I stand
High as a kite, no feet on the ground
Turbulence flight stars abound
Roller-coaster ride and I'm hanging upside down
And here I go again for another round
When I fall, got to take it like a man
If I wanna fly, I better learn to land
When I fall, got to take it like a man
If I wanna fly, I better learn to land
High as a kite, no feet on the ground
Turbulence flight stars abound
Roller-coaster ride and I'm hanging upside down
And here I go again for another round
3. GIRL IN HEAT
She's hot, so hot
You can't believe your eyes, damn hot
Girls who whould have thought
A little make-up and a push-up bra
High heels to make her legs look tall
She's transforming as the minutes pass
In front of the mirror she's checking her curves
Doubting about her too short skirt
She blows a kiss to the women in the looking glass
And she's hot, so hot
You can't believe your eyes, damn hot
A metamorphose, too hot
Girl, who would have thought
A girl in heat
So untamed and wild
A girl in heat, ready to cook tonight
A girl in heat
She's untamed and wild
A girl in heat, spicing it up all right
She checks her stockings one more time
Pouts her lips and opens her eyes
She feels damn hot, she cannot believe
She catches a whiff of her fresh parfume
Adds some more an saturates the room
Ten past nine, Yeah she's ready to leave
And she's hot, so hot
You can't believe your eyes, damn hot
A metamorphose, too hot
Girl, who would have thought
And she's hot, so hot
You can't believe your eyes, damn hot
A metamorphose, too hot
Girl, who would have thought
A girl in heat
So untamed and wild
A girl in heat, ready to cook tonight
A girl in heat
She's untamed and wild
A girl in heat, spicing it up all right
4. CATCH 22
The grass is greener on the other side
If I could lie, I just might
Don't get me wrong, I love you still
But lately I missed the thrill
My hunger caged by love
Is it strong enough
Together through thick and thin
There ain't no fight whe cannot win
I wish I could relieve the urge inside
Vut I'd hurt you when I cross that line
Desires tamed by love
Is it strong enough
I'm in a catch, catch-22
I'm in a catch, catch-22
No matter what I choose
I am bound to loose
Catch-22
Inner feelings have called a truce
Can't have my cake and eat it too
No best of both worlds but a double bind
It leaves a restless man unsatisfied
My cravings confined by love
Is it strong enough
I'm in a catch, catch-22
I'm in a catch, catch-22
No matter what I choose
I am bound to loose
I'm in a catch, catch-22
I'm in a catch, catch-22
I'm in a catch, catch-22
5. IN THE DEAD OF NIGHT
We ride the roads of freedom
Where time and place are lost
Meandwhile good thoughts are passing by
You are on my mind
Chasing dreams at nighttime
Miles away from home
Where I can't be for a day, or more
Out of the clouds the arrow came aimed for the heart
To shoot straight through, yeah
All I need is what we have
It's an endless love afair
All I got is what you need
Get your body
Close to mine
In the dead of night
Out in the open, I feel
Wind through my hair again
Truth is, we want to have it all
At the same time
Freed from daily business
We're off to stray the foreign lands
It is the love that we can't get
We want most
It must have been lady luck by my side
Who brought me you
All I need is what we have
It's an endless love afair
All I got is what you need
Get your body
Close to mine
In the dead of night
Passing the mountains
Over the seas
I am riding the roads of freedom
On my way
On my way back to you
Can somebody tell me
What the hell we're fighting for
What's left when war is won
But love is lost
All I need is what we have
It's an endless love afair
All I got is what you need
Get your body
Close to mine
In the dead of night
6. LOST IN DISCOTHEQUES
Song by song, I'm getting close to you
But you don't see
I am shuffling in oe oh oh, I am shuffling in oe oh oh,
Dancing araound, but I'm a clumsy kind of fool
Yes I'm lost,
Lost in discotheques oe oh oh, lost in discotheques oe oh oh
Out of my comfort zone
Heading on my own
Right into the lion's den
Just to spend the night with you
Tonight's the night, I won't settle for less
Now be a man,
Living on the edge oe oh oh, living on the edge oe oh oh
When opportunity knocks I got to make a move
Or I am lost,
Lost in discotheques oe oh oh, lost in discotheques oe oh oh
Out of my comfort zone
Heading on my own
Right into the lion's den
Just to spend the night with you
Sirens call and the writing's on the wall
Now I'm lost,
Lost in discotheqeues oe oh oh, lost in discotheqeues oe oh oh
Out of my comfort zone
Heading on my own
Right into the lion's den
Just to spend the night
Oh, just to spend the night
Just to spend the night with you
7. WALKING ON TIGHTROPE
Walk on
In a line
You want to shake my believes
Try to mess with my head
And expect me to hessitate
No you can't stop me now
No I won't kneel and bow
Oh I need to keep it straight
But I see a man
Torn in two, by his darker self
I am walking, walking on tightrope
And I'm heading for the other side
Walking, Walking on tightrope
Towards a better life
All your temptations, hard to resist
Friends and foe insist
But I have had my fill
No you can't hold me back
Yeah i'll defend my flag
Oh, you won't drain my will
Step by step, across the void
Break the chain, break the spell
Halfway there's a man
Torn in two
By his darker self
I am walking, walking on tightrope
And I'm heading for the other side
Walking, Walking on tightrope
Towards a better life
I am walking, walking on tightrope
And I'm heading for the other side
Walking, Walking on tightrope
Towards a better life
8. LIGHT MY DYNAMITE
Grains of sand are crawling in the hourglass
Anxios eager beaveres, from a hungry mass
Dying to go wild, the tension's building up
With a clap of thunder, fireworks erupt
Old school chemistry, light my dynamite
Hard rock remedy, light my dynamite
Put the spark to the tinder, light my dynamite
Night's too short to linger, light my dynamite
Hands if time are moving at the slowest pace
Agitated horses, waiting for the race
Absence makes the heart grow fonder, desire's getting loud
With a flash of lightning, shockwaves hit the crowd
Old school chemistry, light my dynamite
Hard rock remedy, light my dynamite
Put the spark to the tinder, light my dynamite
Night's too short to linger, light my dynamite
Oh oh yeah
Dancing on the celing
Beijing, Berlin, set the night on
Set the night on fire
Heating, heating up in ecstasy
Oh yeah
Old school chemistry, light my dynamite
Hard rock remedy, light my dynamite
Put the spark to the tinder, light my dynamite
Night's too short to linger, light my dynamite
9. ON AND ON
On and on, and I'm movin' on
There ain't no guile, no smile
That makes me wait
On and on, and I'm movin' on
There ain't no city, no beauty
That makes me stay
I won't stay
Exotic spices and freaky food
Sipping from the local brew
Different customs and attitudes
Strange rules getting me confused
From north to south, east to west
I have travelled all
Was it yesterday, or the day before
I'm affraid I can't recall
On and on, and I'm movin' on
There ain't no guile, no smile
That makes me wait
On and on, and I'm movin' on
There ain't no city, no beauty
That makes me stay
I won't stay
I won't stay
Friendly faces showing me around
Rushing past the sights abound
Unfamiliar toast, but we understand
Before the night is done, we are friends
It's run and gun, such a short affair
Once more I will yearn
It was intense and I fell in love
I promise i'll return
On and on, and I'm movin' on
There ain't no guile, no smile
That makes me wait
On and on, and I'm movin' on
There ain't no city, no beauty
That makes me stay
I won't stay
I won't stay
I won't stay
I won't stay
10. SECRET DANCER
I've been a fool for a woman again
Fell in her trap, I'm her favorite sin
Unconditional, is how it began
Won't beat around the bush, it's what I wanna be in
It's temptation on the quiet
Don't knock on the front door
In the shadows, that's where we have
A good bit of criminal love
You're my secret dancer
Can't stop from running to you
My, my secret dancer
Moving on the trail of bandits
Now time is passing, I'm not confident
That things will turn out the way we've planned
Don't want to push, nor to offend
Too afraid that the story ends
I must drop my expections
Don't need a lesson that I had before
I use you, as you used me
Give me some more, criminal love
You're my secret dancer
Can't stop from running to you
My, my secret dancer
Moving on the trail of bandits
Finish what you've started
Walk your talk with me
Can't take no longer
I've been a fool for a woman again
You're my secret dancer
Can't stop from running to you
My, my secret dancer
Moving on the trail of bandits
You're my secret dancer
Can't stop from running to you
My, my secret dancer
Moving on the trail of bandits
Oh oh oh oh oh oh,
Be my secret dancer
Oh yeah
11. SWEET GOODBYE
Time to rest, I won't fly no more
These old wings are bruised and sore
I left the nest to roam the skies
But I settle down for lullabies
Sweet, sweet goodbye
Love has changed it's course
Sweet, sweet goodbye
I won't fly no more
Fooled around and I fell in love
I tried to foil, not enough
Unanswered callings in the night
And I'm running out of alibis
Sweet, sweet goodbye
Love has changed it's course
Sweet, sweet goodbye
I won't fly no more
You hold on tight, you dry my tears
But al whe share is yesterdays
Sweet, sweet goodbye
Love has changed it's course
Sweet, sweet goodbye
I won't fly no more
Crimson delight awaits
Incense perfumes embrace
And the darkness is a sign it won't be long
Chaos relleased as the drum starts to drone
Bless me with your enchanting melodies
Enlighten me with your blasphemous verities
And I unleash myself
As I drink from your well
At the crack of dawn
At the crack of dawn
Crimson delight for the braves
Summon the devil at the altar of bones and stakes
To sacrifice
Bless me with your enchanting melodies
Enlighten me with your blasphemous verities
And I unleash myself
As I drink from your well
At the crack of dawn
Bless me with your enchanting melodies
Enlighten me with your blasphemous verities
And I unleash myself
As I drink from your well
At the crack of dawn
At the crack of dawn
