me this kind of thing how you hope to live alone and occupy your waking hours we're taking sides again i just wept i couldn't understand why you started this again every day you send me more what makes it worse is this plan of yours to ensure I don't forget I'd write and tell you that I've burnt them all but you never send me your address and i've kept them anyway so don't ask me if I think it's true that communication can bring hope to those who have gone their seperate ways it hardly touched me when it should have then and memories are uncertain friends when recalled by messages coded messages always hurt letters messages poision _________________________________________________________________________ @SONG: Enola Gay Enola Gay, you should have stayed at home yesterday Oho it can't describe the feeling and the way you lied These games you play, they're gonna end it all in tears someday Oho Enola Gay, it shouldn't ever have to end this way It's 8:15, that's the time that it's always been We got your message on the radio, condition's normal and you're coming home Enola Gay, is mother proud of little boy today Oho, this kiss you give, it's never ever gonna fade away Enola Gay, it shouldn't ever have to end this way Oho Enola Gay, it should've faded our dreams away It's 8:15, oh that's the time that it's always been We got your message on the radio, condition's normal and you're coming home Enola Gay, is mother proud of little boy today Oho, this you give, it's never ever gonna fade away ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ @SONG: SOUVENIR It's my direction, it's my proposal, it's so hard, it's leading me astray My obsession, it's my creation, you'll understand, it's not important now All I need is coordination, I can't imagine my destination My intention, ask my opinion, with no excuse, my feelings still remain My feelings still remain ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ @SONG: JOAN OF ARC Little catholic girl is fallin' in love A face on a page, a gift from above She should've known better than to give her heart She should've known better than to ever part without me, without me I gave her everything that I ever owned I think she understood it but she never spoke She shouldn't oughta try to be that way She shouldn't have to go there every day without me, without me Now listen to us good and listen well Listen to the song and everything we tell We should've known better than to give her away We should've known better to this very day, without me, without me Listen, [show it all], all you gotta do Say the right words and I'll be coming through Hold you in my arms and take you right away Now she's turned away to another land We never understood it why she gave her hand She shouldn't oughta promise, 'cos it's just pretend I know she doesn't mean it and she'll leave again without me, without me Without me, without me ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ @SONG: JOAN OF ARC (MAID OF ORLEANS) If Joan of Arc had a heart, would she give it as a gift To such as me who longs to see, how a legend oughta be Had dreams to give her heart away, like an orphan along the way She cared so much, she offered up her body to the grave ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ @SONG: Tesla Girls No no no no no no no Tesla girls Tesla girls testing out theories electric chairs and dynamos dressed to kill they're killing me but heaven knows their recipe No no no You wouldn't believe me if I said the things I've seen went over my head I've been patient heaven knows I've learnt the rules and how it goes I can't sit still or settle down and when I walk I don't touch the ground see those girls they're heaven blessed I guess it's so they know best Tesla girls Tesla girls writing in their diaries now and then they'll watch TV now and then they'll speak to me but heaven knows their recipe You wouldn't believe them if they said the things they've seen went over their heads they've been patient heaven knows they seem to care and so it goes they can't sit still or settle down and when they walk they don't touch the ground see those girls they're heaven blessed I guess it's so they know best Tesla girls Tesla girls Tesla girls Tesla girls Tesla girls Tesla girls testing out theories electric chairs and dynamos dressed to kill they're killing me but heaven knows their recipe Tesla girls Tesla girls now and then I watch TV now and then they'll speak to me but heaven knows their recipe No no no _________________________________________________________________________ @SONG: Locomotion Across every ocean for the sake of locomotion but I wouldn't have a notion how to save my soul I walk down the sidewalk run down the boardwalk stop and make small talk but I can't say no to you I can't say no I can't say yes I cant' even write down my own address I can't touch Heaven it's a little too far it's the only way to travel got dreaming on a parr I'm staring through the window wonder where you are moving through the landscape at a million miles an hour Across every nation from the harbour to the station it's a source of inspiration it's a power to the state they run down the railways sail across the seaways fly through the airways but they can't say no to you I can't stand up I can't stand still I know you wouldn't like it if I told you how I feel I just want to say that it's only common sense but the words always fail me at my own expense I'm staring out the window wonder where you are moving through the landscape at a million miles an hour Across every ocean for the sake of locomotion but I wouldn't have a notion how to save my soul I walk down the sidewalk run down the boardwalk stop and make small talk but I can't say no to you _________________________________________________________________________ @SONG: Talking Loud and Clear Talking loud and clear saying just what I feel lying in the grass with the sun on our backs it doesn't really matter what we do or what we say with every little movement we give ourselves away Opposite and opposite decisions are reversed facing one another with words that couldn't hurt with every little word you're getting closer to me talking loud and clear saying just what we feel today Talking loud and clear saying just what we feel lying in the grass we've got time on our hands body next to body with silence all around we understand each other but didn't make a sound Promises and promises of vows we shall return facing one another I thought my heart would burn you turn to move away but then get closer to me talking loud and clear saying just what we feel today _________________________________________________________________________ @SONG: SO IN LOVE Talk to me, don't lie to me Save your breath Don't look at me, don't smile at me Just close your eyes I was so impressed by you I was running blind I would fall for every trick Every twist of mind Heaven is cold Without any soul It's hard to believe I was so in love with you Don't say your prayers, don't build your hopes Just walk away Don't phone me up, don't call around Don't waste your time You were so in awe of me You were so divine You would do just anything To still be mine Heaven is cold Without any soul It's hard to believe I was so in love with you All the things you said to me I was so obsessed You were always talking talking God I did my best Heaven is cold Without any soul It's hard to believe I was so in love with you Etc.... ___________________________________________________________________________ @SONG: DREAMING If you were born in heaven girl I'd understand so well But ever since I've met you child You've made my life such hell With every day that passes I fall nearer to the ground It seems that I've been looking for Something that won't be found I was only Dreaming I was only trying to catch your eye I was only wishing you would notice me Instead you said goodbye Could this be the new answer then To all the dreams we've made Could there be some solution please To rid me of this grace But every single second that you held me in your arms You build me up You raise me up You kill me with your charms Refrain Would you stay with me tonight Won't you make these feelings last Can we start this all again Would that be just to much to ask Refrain _________________________________________________________________________ @SONG: IF YOU LEAVE If you leave, don't leave now Please don't take my heart away Promise me just one more night Then we'll go our separate ways With hours left time on our sides Now it's fading fast Every second every moment We've got to--we've gotta make it last I touch you once I touch you twice I won't let go at any price I need you now like I needed you then You always said we'd still be friends someday If you leave I won't cry I won't waste one single day But if you leave don't look back I'll be running the other way Seven years went under the bridge Like time was standing still Heaven knows what happens now You've got to--you've gotta say you will I touch you once I touch you twice I won't let go at any price I need you now like I needed you then You always said we'd meet again I touch you once I touch you twice I won't let go at any price I need you now like I needed you then You always said we'd still be friends I touch you once I touch you twice I won't let go at any price I need you now like I needed you then You always said we'd meet again someday If you leave Oh if you leave Oh if you leave Don't look back Don't look back _________________________________________________________________________ @SONG: SECRET I've got a secret I can't explain And all the time I've waited for this day All along I was never in doubt I always knew it would never get out There are things that I cannot tell And there are things that you know damn well This is getting very hard for me I guess you'd better just wait and see This is all, this is all You heard a message and the message was clear And all the time you wipe away that tear All I want is to hold your hand To see the sun and walk the sand You make me sad and you make me glad And now you see all my secret is this love Is love, is love All my secret is this love Everyday you're always there You comfort me and make me feel it's worth my while And then I look around and you're not there And everyday you say you care and I'll beware This is all, this is all I've got a secret and I can't explain All I want is to hold your hand All along I was never in doubt To see the sun and to walk the sand _________________________________________________________________________ @SONG: LA FEMME ACCIDENT La Femme Accident's Got everything you want You never have to know You never have to show She's hanging on your every word She clings to your heart She wonÕt let you depart Oh this is mine But she's with you all the time She's crying like a fragile child But if you get to know her SheÕs not a little girl And if she gets to know you You canÕt escape her world La Femme Accident A woman full of want Her hearts on the line You haven't got the time She suffers like some Joan of Arc She says thereÕs just no justice In this world She's paradise for a day La Femme Accident What reason could you want Just use her and turn away La Femme Accident Got everything you want She's paradise for a day _________________________________________________________________________ @SONG: WE LOVE YOU Gotta get a message to the starg in our pockets for a rainy day But here we are in trouble like we always are Just praying for a miracle; reaching for the stars We love you; would die for you We need you everyday We've gotta get a messageuWe love you; would die for you We need you everyday Oh we love you; wouldn't leave you We miss you faraway It's just another promise like we've heard before Never really knowing what we're fighting for We love you; would die for you We need you everyday Oh we love you; wouldn't leave you We miss you faraway We love you; would die for you We need you everyday Oh we love you; wouldn't leave you We miss you faraway (repeat and fade)
