1.Another Day
ROGER
Who Do You Think You Are?
Barging In On Me And My Guitar
Little Girl - Hey
The Door Is That Way
You Better Go You Know
The Fire's Out Anyway
Take Your Powder - Take Your Candle
Your Sweet Whisper
I Just Can't Handle
Well Take Your Hair In The Moonlight
Your Brown Eyes - Goodbye, Goodnight
I Should Tell You I Should Tell You
I Should Tell You I Should -- No!
Another Time - Another Place
Out Temperature Would Climb
There'd Be A Long Embrace
We'd Do Another Dance
It'd Be Another Play
Looking For Romance
Come Back Another Day
Another Day
MIMI
The Heart May Freeze Or It Can Burn
The Pain Will Ease If I Can Learn
There Is No Future
There Is No Past
I Live This Moment
As My Last
There's Only Us
There's Only This
Forget Regret
Or Life Is Yours To Miss
No Other Road
No Other Way
No Day But Today
ROGER
Excuse Me If I'm Off Track
But If You're So Wise
Then Tell Me - Why Do You Need
Smack?
Take Your Needle
Take Your Fancy Prayer
And Don't Forget
Get The Moonlight Out Of Your Hair
Long Ago - You Might've Lit Up My Heart
But The Fire's Dead - Ain't Never Ever
Gonna Start
Another Time - Another Place
The Words Would Only Rhyme
We'd Be In Outer Space
It'd be Another Song
We'd Sing Another Way
You Wanna Prove Me Wrong?
Come Back Another Day
Another Day
MIMI
There's Only Yes
Only Tonight
We Must Let Go
To Know What's Right
No Other Course
No Other Way
No Day But Today
MIMI & OTHERS
I Can't Control
My Destiny
I Trust My Soul
My Only Goal
Is Just - To Be
There's Only Now
There's Only Here
Give In To Love

No Other Way

Powder
No Day But Today
No Day But Today
No Day But Today

ROGER
Control Your
Temper
She Doesn't See
Who Say's That
There's A Soul
Just Let Me Be
Who Do You Think
You Are?
Barging In On Me
And My
Guitar
Little Girl, Hey
The Door Is
That Way
The Fire's Out
Anyway
Take Your
Take Your Candle
Take Your Brown
Eyes
Your Pretty Smile
Your Silhouette
Another Time,
Another Place
Another Rhyme,
A Warm Embrace
Another Dance,
Another Way
Another Chance,
Another Day

Without You
I Die Without You
I Die Without You
No Day But Today
I Die Without You
ALL
No Day But Today
MEN
Will I Lose My
Dignity
Will Someone
Care
Will I Wake

Nevers And Maybes Die
Let's Go Out Tonight
I Have To Go Out Tonight
You're Sweet
Wanna Hit The Street?
Wanna Wail At The Moon Like A Cat In
