Wishbone Ash : Raw to the Bone

Las palabras
1. CELL OF FAME
Isadora
Dancing
Can you see her?
Che Guavara
Marching beside her
Valentino
Let me in
Every minute
Don't you see them looking
Looking down on you?
Pictures on the walls of your room
Gonna help you play the part
Of your ever changing mood.
Lying low
The cast is set around your bones
When all you ever wanted to be
Was plain Mister Jones.
Cell of fame
It's gonna trap you forever.
Self confessions
And your back's against the wall.
Cell of fame
It's gonna trap you forever.
Self confessions
And your back's against the wall.
Idolised by the hands that hold the key
Not even time will set you free.
When it's your turn to leave
Hung at dawn
Then you will join us
With the faces looking on
That's where you belong.
Cell of fame
It's gonna trap you forever.
Self confessions
And your back's against the wall.
2. PEOPLE IN MOTION
I'm at a station
Trying to kill time.
I watch the people
They amuse my mind.
"Where are they going?
Where have they been?
Has she got a fast car?"
I ask myself within.
How many times do you stop and wonder
What makes the world spin around?
But then, time is your freedom
You just do what you've got to do.
People in motion
In motion
People in motion.
I'm taking my time
I'm taking it easy,
But the pace is never too slow.
I see a crying child
But nobody cares
All too busy rushing everywhere.
How many times do you stop and wonder
What makes the world spin around?
But then, time is your freedom,
You just do what you got to do.
People in motion
In motion
People in motion.
3. DON’T CRY
I hear echoes inside my head
Calling me back to you.
I'm at a loose end still
And I don't know what I'm going to do.
I walk the streets
Hoping to find something to take you off my mind.
Little girl
You make me feel this way
Well, I'm trying hard to forget you
But I know that it only makes me want to stay.
Don't want to be the one to lose you,
Don't want to see you with someone new.
Don't cry
I still love you.
Don't cry
I'll never leave you.
I find it hard sometimes
To keep my mind on the job.
Well, I've been down
When my love comes crumbling.
I walk the streets
Hoping to find something to take you off my mind.
Don't cry
I still love you.
Don't cry
I'll never leave you.
4. LOVE IS BLUE
You know I miss you
Capture by love and new wants
And then you were gone.
It's taking its time getting over this feeling
When I see many clouds and the sun still shines through.
Shining through
I see a rainbow
And what you said is now coming back to me.
When the storm breaks from the sky, you'll know.
What colour is left is in the sea, as you knew.
Love is blue, love is blue, love is blue.
Love is blue, love is blue, love is blue.
Love is blue.
You know I want you
It's times like now in my mind, there's only one thought.
Do I wanna go on, carried away by this illusion?
I've gotta be strong, only one thing that I need to do.
Love is blue, love is blue, love is blue
Love is blue, love is blue, love is blue
Love is blue
5. LONG LIVE THE NIGHT
I see she's crying
And I hear her calling
But I disregard her
Just keep on walking.
My heart is burning
She needs to work it out
Before she leaves her innocence behind.
I want to be there by your side
I want to see the morning sun rise.
Don't want to be alone, left in the dark.
Like a blind man
I can't find my way.
Strike a light, up in your window
So that I can see right up to your door.
Long live the night, we spent together
Long live the night forevermore.
Out in the streets
In the cold light of day
I've been reflecting on what she might say.
I felt a shiver
The devil passed me by.
He said nothing
My luck was running high.
Strike a light, up in your window
So that I can see right up to your door.
Long live the night, we spent together
Long live the night forevermore.
6. ROCKET IN MY POCKET
My baby called me up, she said
Why don't you come and take me out
Pick me up in your brand new car
Shake the short change from the old fruit jar
Put on your dancing shoes
Head straight for the rhythm and blues
The music was hot but my baby was not
I've got a rocket in my pocket
Well, a finger in the socket
No way you can stop it
I've got a rocket, I've got a rocket
I don't understand that girl
I can't explain
She got one foot on the platform
And the other on the train
I've got a rocket in my pocket
Well, a finger in the socket
No way you can stop it
I've got a rocket, I've got a rocket
I've got a rocket in my pocket
Well, a finger in the socket
No way you can stop it
I've got a rocket, I've got a rocket
7. IT’S ONLY LOVE
Way down low I can feel trouble
Well, all is blowing up like a South Sea bubble
Nothing that you do can make me feel better
I've never been the same since I read your letter
Bringing me down, bringing me down
Oh that girl she's a rich man's daughter
Leading me on like a lamb to the slaughter
All I ever wanted was to be your man
I never knew what hit me when you showed your hand
Bringing me down, bringing me down
It's only love
It's only love
Oh pretty woman you give me a thrill
Well like a customer caught with his hands in the till
But for you its real easy and it comes real cheap
Now the words on the page, make a grown man weep now
Bringing me down, bringing me down
It's only love
It's only love
8. DON’T YOU MESS
Don't you mess with me girl, oh no
Don't you mess with me girl
I got a feeling inside won't let go
Love is so strong this much I know
But you play a good game
Still in love you ain't got no shame
I hold you tight you talk in my ear
You say the things that I like to hear
But I know I'm not the only one
You've got some other fools with you, have fun
Don't you mess with me girl oh no
Don't you mess with how I feel inside
Don't you mess with me girl oh no
Don't you mess with how I feel inside
What will you do easy woman
When I say I'm not coming back to you
I know now is the time
Now is the time to get you off my mind
I never said these things to you
It satisfies me through and through
Ain't gonna cry for you no more
I'm gonna shut the door shut the door
Don't you mess with me girl oh no
Don't you mess with how I feel inside
Don't you mess with me girl oh no
Don't you mess with how I feel inside
9. DREAMS (SEARCHING FOR AN ANSWER)
Spend my days searching for an answer
To the dreams that lie within my mind
When we dream we're on another journey
To a place we want to find
Tell me please how does it happen
All the dreams really in our minds
I know the answer is out there
To the pictures that come in the night
Searching for an answer
Don't tell me no lies
Gotta be a reason
To the pictures in my mind
Well I know something's out there
That I just can't understand
Always something to think about
When we're in this other land
Can it be just an illusion?
Calling me into the night
I know the answer is out there
To the pictures that come in the night
Searching for an answer
Don't tell me no lies
Gotta be a reason
To the pictures in my mind
Searching for an answer
Don't tell me no lies
Gotta be a reason
To the pictures in my mind
10. PERFECT TIMING
Perfect timing they call it
Perfect timing
Perfect timing they call it
Perfect timing
Over and under you working your limbs
Alter ego, the mode your in
Mind over matter, spirit of ecstasy
Changing fact to fantasy
Intuition is called into play
And you wonder what she'll say
It's the moment you've waited for
Only you can open up the door
Perfect timing all the way
Perfect timing as the music plays
Perfect timing all the way
Perfect timing as the music plays
Run the gauntlet the fires in your eyes
Choose the moment just looking for the sign
Body language, the push and the shove
One things for certain this ain't love
This ain't love, this ain't love
This ain't love, this ain't love
Oh no, no
Perfect timing all the way
Perfect timing as the music plays
Perfect timing all the way
Perfect timing as the music plays
Eye to eye, cheek to cheek
No need to talk, her eyes just speak
Music playing the theme to a dream
Tension mounting and building to a scream
Perfect timing all the way
Perfect timing as the music plays
Perfect timing all the way
Perfect timing as the music plays
