Hold On To Your Dreams
You came to me in one of these nights
And you told me – about your fears
I tried so hard to comfort you
But you couldn’t hold back your tears
You told me something about the plans
That you made – some years ago
And you found out that it’s not so easy
To get what you want
One more day and you will find
What it takes to see the light
One more day and you will see
What it means and what life’s all about
Hold on to your dreams
don’t you remember the things I told you
Hold on to your dreams
don’t you know how much it means to me
I guess you understand what I mean
And that you know – I never lie to you
And if someone won’t believe in you
I’m sure you’ll know what to say
One more day and you will find
What it takes to see the light
One more day and you will see
What it means and what life’s all about
Hold on to your dreams
don’t you remember the things I told you
Hold on to your dreams
don’t you know how much it means to me

Love Can Change It All
I just can’t take it anymore
I stay here locked behind my door
The night’s alive with sound and shadow
But I stay in this one man ghetto
The only light is on my mind
I put it there to see what I’d find
In the struggle of do or die
There has to be a reason why
Love can change it all
It’s something I feel
It’s something I still remember
Love can change it all
It’s something I need
I know we could be together
There is no sense in the day to day
But we accept it anyway
In the struggle of do or die
There has to be a reason why
Love can change it all
It’s something I feel
It’s something I still remember
Love can change it all
It’s something we need
Keeping us all together

Time Will Tell
Time was – when time stood still for our rendezvous
My heartbeat – hit danger-zone when I thought of you
What we had – felt like an eternity
And nothing could go wrong – or steal our ecstasy
When you’re sleeping next to me
I’m waiting for the day
I lie awake and dream of you
A thousand miles away
So time will tell – and time’s never wrong
So time will tell – but time takes so long
Our time is up – or that’s the way that it seems to be
Your heartbeat – is beating now for your liberty
What we had – can never return again
No matter what we do – no matter who takes the blame
I lie awake and dream of you
A thousand miles away
So time will tell – and time’s never wrong
So time wil tell – but time takes so long

What Do You Live For
I only have to hear your voice
I run for the exit
Because I know it’s leading nowhere
And nothing can fix itI must admit that I’m surprised
How much I used to sympathize
But now I keep my feelings mine
I don’t want to risk it
I’ve known all along something’s going wrong
But the time is right to begin the fight
What do you live for
Why don’t you give more
What are you here for
Why don’t you care more
I hate the way you sell yourself
You try to impress
The last few years I spent with you
Were far from the best
Your ignorance is not what I mind
But that you show it all the time
Why don’t we face up to the truth
that We’re in a mess

The Price You Pay
A word’s enough to end
A Year’s communication
A life surrenders to
a single situation
For what it’s worth I’ll always wish
The sound had never passed my lips
With your finger to my face
We could have still escaped
But It’s the price you pay
For everything you say
don’t even whisper
Cos it’s the price you pay
For everything you say
It’s too late to miss her
The world is going round
this is revolution
All the changes in the world
can offer no solution
For what it’s worth I’ll always wish
The sound had never passed my lips
And I had never said a word
Or you had never heard
Cos it’s the price you pay
For everything you say
don’t even whisper
And it’s the price you pay
For everything you say
It’s too late to miss her
For what it’s worth I’ll always wish
The sound had never passed my lips
With your finger to my face
We could have still escaped
And it’s the price you pay
For everything you say
Well It’s the price you pay
You’ll pay it anyway

Mighty Shiver
Then I felt a mighty shiver
It shook my body head to toe
It took my mind and shook forever
I thought it never let me go
And you know I don’t ask whether
I work too hard when we’re together
And you know I won’t give in
Until the last game is up and chances are nil
I feel a mighty shiver
It grips my mind in a vice like thighs
I feel a mighty shiver
I feel fear but it feels so nice
And I feel a mighty shiver
I take what nature gives to me
What she asks for I will give her
I am made of energy
And you know I don’t ask whether…

I’m Waiting For The Night
So you take me for a fool
And expect me to play
But I want to take control
At the end of the day
Won’t you give a sign
Just a hint from your eyes
Just enough for my dreams to be realised
I’m waiting for the night
And for the nighttime
I’m waiting for the night
When You’ll be mine
And you know that you’re the one
Yet you still hold me back
But the change is going to come
When the light turns to dark
Won’t you give a sign
Just a hint from your eyes
Just enough for my dreams to be realised

Secret Love
I live my life from nine to five
Not always sure if I’m still alive
There’s no adventure, no surprise
No hidden meaning under the disguise
Phone rings at midnight, you don’t know who
Is it really fright or something new
Knock at the window, noise at the door
Do you want less or more?
Secret love – I’ve gotta have some
Secret love – With you
Secret love – can’t live without that
Secret love – No more
Deep in the darkness, in the night
I’m looking for something to excite
An inspiration, a mystery
A strange adventure just for you and me
Phone rings at midnight, you don’t know who
Is it really fright or something new
Knock at the window, noise at the door
Do you want less or more?
Secret love – I’ve gotta have some
Secret love – With you
Secret love – can’t live without that
Secret love – No more

Blue Girl
I remember yesterday
Saw her standing next to me
I felt like I was in a dream
Playing in a movie scene
Then she said don’t stare at me
Boys like you will never learn
When you say that you’re in love
I know it’s just another lie
You won’t see me
I can’t believe it who’s to blame
You don’t need me
I can’t believe it’s just a game
Blue girl, oh blue girl
I know, It’s too much to take
Blue girl, oh blue girl
I know, I can’t stand the pain
Now you keep me waiting here
With the love I have to give
Time hangs heavy on my hands
I don’t know which way to go
We were through before we started
She was acting much to cool
But I know that she’ll be waiting
She just let me play the fool
You won’t see me
I can’t believe it – who’s to blame
You don’t need me
I can’t believe it’s just a game
Blue girl, oh blue girl
I know, It’s too much to take
Blue girl, oh blue girl
I know, I can’t stand the pain

One Day
One Day’s a day
When everything goes wrong
Not like today
Not like the rest and not so long
We should never say a word we can’t defend
And if I’m right in my conclusion
We should stay to the end
We need something on which we can depend
And if I’m right about confusion
We should stay to the end
And I said, one day
won’t you ever wonder what you’re living for
And before you move don’t forget, one day
This heart won’t beat no more
And one day
We’ll be certain what we did this whole thing for
So before you move don’t forget, one day
This heart won’t beat no more
One Day’s enough
To squeeze the life from love
This is the stuff
Of which our nightmares are made up
We should never say a word we can’t defend
And if I’m right in my conclusion
We should stay to the end
We need something on which we can depend
And if I’m right about confusion
We should stay to the end
And I said, one day
won’t you ever wonder what you’re living for
And before you move don’t forget, one day
This heart won’t beat no more
And one day
We’ll be certain what we did this whole thing for
So before you move don’t forget, one day
This heart won’t beat no more
don’t you ever wonder what you’re living for..

Single B-Side

Going through the motions
I can’t believe that it’s for real
I can’t believe you told the truth
It doesn’t matter what you feel
You look to old to play the youth
And so I put the pressure on you
It’s time for you to act your age
Though I can’t tell you what to do
I can destroy your gilded cageI want you
Do you want me
You know you want to want somebody
We’re going through the motions
I’m living on emotion
We’re going through the motions
I’m living on devotion
It’s not to late to stop the rot
The time has come to make a stand
And if I put you on the spot
I hope that you will understand

Wheels On Fire
You speak of love
But we all know just what you’re after
You smile shyly
But your lips weren’t just made for laughter
Let’s do what the others just talk about
Give me what the others just dream about
Let’s do what our bodies and minds dictate
I think you understand that I can’t wait
White walls burning
My wheels are on fire
Let it burning
Keep my wheels on fire
You’re dressed in black
As if you’re going underground
You know how much
I like the way you run around
Let’s do what the others just talk about
Give me what the others just dream about
Let’s do what our bodies and minds dictate
I think you understand that I can’t wait
White walls burning
My wheels are on fire
Let it burning
Keep my wheels on fire now
White walls burning
My wheels are on fire
Let it burning
My wheels are on fire now
