Duran Duran Astronaut Lyrics
1.Sunrise(Reach Up For The)

Now the time has come
The music's between us
Though the night seems young
Is at an end
Only change will bring
You out of the darkness
In this moment everything is born again
Reach up for the sunrise
Put your hands into the big sky
You can touch the sunrise
Feel the new day enter your life
Reach up for the sunrise
Put your hands into the big sky
You can touch the sunrise
Feel the new day enter your life
Now the fireball burns
We go round together
As the planet turns into the light
Something more than dreams to
Watch out for each other
Coz we know what it means to be alive
Reach up for the sunrise
Put your hands into the big sky
You can touch the sunrise
Feel the new day enter your life
Reach up for the sunrise
Put your hands into the big sky
You can touch the sunrise
Feel the new day enter your life
Feel the new day enter your life
Feel the new day
Reach up for the sunrise
Put your hands into the big sky
You can touch the sunrise
Feel the new day enter your life
Reach up for the sunrise
Put your hands into the big sky
You can touch the sunrise
Feel the new day enter your life
Reach up for the sunrise
Put your hands into the big sky
You can touch the sunrise
Feel the new day enter your life


2.Bedroom Toys

You want it... you got it... now what you gonna do with it?
You want it... you got it... now what you gonna do with it?
I been around the world
I seen a lot of things
That make your chicken curl
You're squeezing like boys and teasing like girls
Confusing like boys and girls
Plan an exit route... parachute... rubber suit
Are you ready for a little swim
There's regular... queen size... flip it on the b side... solid
gold
Oh my God what's this?
I saw the bedroom toys
Now I'm stalling
I can't believe my eyes
I saw the bedroom toys
Now I'm crawling
I learn to improvise
Checking out the five star atmosphere
You want some expertise
If you got treasure, I'll pay you for the pleasure
It'll bring you to your knees
Silicone romance, what's your name fancypants?
Got your eye on the employees
Forget about the reeling, talk about the feeling
Solid Gold
Oh my God what's this?
I saw the bedroom toys
Now I'm stalling
I can't believe my eyes
I saw the bedroom toys
Now I'm crawling
I learn to improvise
You want it... you got it... now what you gonna do with it?
You want it... you got it... now what you gonna do with it?
Now you washed up, beat smashing, grab no receipt takes the
platinum off your shine
Lazy bed star, la di da, petty bourgeois
Oh my would you look at the time
Until you wise up, you know we're gonna line up
The pimps and snitches to dip into your riches
If you can't destroy it, you might as well enjoy it
Solid Gold
Oh my God what's this?
I saw the bedroom toys
Now I'm stalling
I can't believe my eyes
I saw the bedroom toys
Now I'm crawling
I learn to improvise
I saw the bedroom toys
Now I'm crawling
I learn to improvise
You want it... you got it... now what you gonna do with it?
I can't believe my eyes
You want it... you got it... now what you gonna do with it?
I learn to improvise
I can't believe my eyes


3.Chains

An hour since the sundown
The ghosts are creepin in
Are gathering around me
Like starlings in the wind
Dark shapes gather round
Voices like my brother's
Are whispering to me
But I don't know these others
Who want to set me free
Come home you're out of time
But the life cannot let go
It's a chain cuts across my soul
Anchoring in this world
I put my hand into the flame
Burning but I feel no pain
Don't speak, don't speak my name
Hold on to this life of chains
The door is standing open
But I'm too tired to be afraid
My whole life's in this moment
I've been fighting all the way
Just need a little more time
Cuz the life just can't let go
It's a chain cuts across my soul
Anchoring in this world
I put my hand into the flame
Burning but I feel no pain
Don't speak, don't speak my name
Hold on to this life of chains
Nah nah nah nah nah
Nah nah nah nah nah
Nah nah nah nah nah
Nah nah nah nah nah
Nah nah nah nah nah
Nah nah nah nah nah
I put my hand into the flame
Burning but I feel no pain
Don't speak, don't speak my name
Hold on to this life of chains
Chains... chains... chains...


4.Finest Hour

How does it feel out on the ice?
You speak to the crowd but nobody hears
It's not a dream and you are no prize
And you're not alone come in from the fear
Gonna take it back
Take back the life that you wanna lead
Been under quiet attack
But now it's time for you and me
Gonna take it back
You've got to fight for what you believe
We're gonna make this stand
The finest hour that we see
When did our choice become erased?
Where is the violence in this crowd?
Now that our voice has been replaced
With a silence that screams out loud
Gonna take it back
Take back the life that you wanna lead
Been under quiet attack
But now it's time for you and me
Gonna take it back
You've got to fight for what you believe
We're gonna make this stand
The finest hour that we see
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Gonna take it back
Take back the life that you wanna lead
Been under quiet attack
But now it's time for you and me
Gonna take it back
You've got to fight for what you believe
We're gonna make this stand
The finest hour that we see
Take it back
Take back the life that you wanna lead
Been under quiet attack
But now it's time for you and me
Gonna take it back
You've got to fight for what you believe
We're gonna make this stand
The finest hour that we see
Yeah...
The finest hour that we see
We're gonna make this stand
The Finest Hour that we see
Yeah -eah - eah -eah -eah


5.Nice

(There is nothing better)
(Than being with you )
(And I'm feeling so nice)
(Feeling so nice)
Take the beautiful sting of a Scorpio
A careless smile and it begins to snow
And it hurts me to think
That you might never know
That I've got this thing about you
In case you don't understand
There's something else I meant to tell you
There is nothing better
Than being with you
And I'm feeling so nice
There is nowhere better
Than here with you
And it's feeling so nice
Staying up with the moon
And walking home in the rain
Mixed with your perfume
And never twice the same
I got a lot to lose
But everything to gain
When I really think about it
You haven't got a clue
It's all that I can do to hide it
There is nothing better
Than being with you
And I'm feeling so nice
There is nowhere better
Than here with you
And it's feeling so nice
Did I already say
'Cause you make me forget
I might as well be brave and tell 'ya
And it hurts me to think that
You might never know
Will it hurt as much being true?
I might as well be brave and tell 'ya
There is nothing better
Than being with you
And I'm feeling so nice
There is nowhere better
Than here with you
And it's feeling so nice
There is nothing better
Than being with you
And I'm feeling so nice
Yeah I'm feeling
And it's feeling so nice


6.One Of Those Days

Suddenly it all looks so familiar
Gone and wrecked it like I always do
Don't you know it?
Life is out to kill 'ya
But you still go getting on with it
Seen better times than right now
But I'm not running away
No nothing's gonna bring me down
It's just been one of those days
I'm not the only one
They can drag me to the gates of hell now
There's nothing left but I'm still hanging in
Not for me, ain't no final showdown
I'm too shattered to do anything
Seen better times than right now
But I'm not running away
'Cause nothing's going to bring me down
It's just been one of those days
I'm not the only one feeling this way
And I'm not sorry
Oh~~
I'm not the only one feeling this way
And I'm not sorry
Not running away
I'm not the only one feeling this way
And I'm not sorry
I hear you say
And I'm not sorry


7.Point Of No Return

The random aspects of our lives
Come together once in a while
So blinding and decidedly
Naivete falls from our eyes
And we'll not regain
As we watch the tower falling down
Maybe things can change
Only if you want
Maybe things can change
Only if you want
You know, you know there's no avoiding
The lesson to be learned
The lesson to be learned
The point of no return
You say 'What if?'
But can you live it?
It's all that we deserve
It's all that we deserve
The point of no return
Don't blame yourself
Don't blame me
But we're the ones
Who can feed the ground
So this poison tree, don't let it grow again
And from this glass and broken earth
There is a way that can be built
A better life for everyone
Maybe things can change
Only if you want
Maybe things can change
Only if you want
You know, you know there's no avoiding
The lesson to be learned
The lesson to be learned
The point of no return
You say 'What if?'
But can you live it?
It's all that we deserve
It's all that we deserve
The point of no return
You know, you know there's no avoiding
The lesson to be learned
The lesson to be learned
The point of no return
You say 'What if?'
But can you live it?
It's all that we deserve
It's all that we deserve
The point of no return
You know, you know there's no avoiding
The lesson to be learned
The lesson to be learned
The point of no return


8.Still Breathing

Home, it's not brick or stone
Or comfort in the firelight,
Not in that sense anyway.
Dreams, if only I had known
But these things always seem
So much clearer at a distance.
I'm walking out of this town
I'm never going back there,
I'm never going back there.
I'd burn the place to the ground.
I'm never going back there,
I'm never going back there again.
Words only could break that ring
You know the words still sting
So much harder than the blows ever did.
Heart, though it's hot and violent
My head is cool and quiet
As the ashes that fall from the sky
I'm walking out of this town
I'm never going back there,
I'm never going back there.
I burn the place to the ground.
I'm never going back there,
I'm never going back there again.
Now, I know this shattered feeling,
Trampled but still breathing.
I'm just waiting for a good day
I'm walking out of this town
I'm never going back there,
I'm never going back there.
I've burn the place to the ground.
I'm never going back there,
I'm never going back there again.
I'm never going back there,
I'm never going back there again.
I'm never going back there,
I'm never going back there again.
I'm never going back there,
I'm never going back there again.


9.What Happens Tomorrow

Child, don't you worry
It's enough your growing up in such a hurry
Brings you down, the news they sell ya
To put in your mind that all mankind is a failure
But nobody knows
What's gonna happen tomorrow
We try not to show
How frightened we are
If you love me, I'll protect you
However I can
You've got to believe
It'll be alright in the end
You've got to believe
It'll be alright again
Fighting because we're so close
There are times we punish those who we need the most
Though we can't wait for a saviour
Only got ourselves to blame for this behaviour
And nobody knows
What's gonna happen tomorrow
We try not to show
How frightened we are
Would seem lonely
If you were the only
star in the night?
You've got to believe
It'll be alright in the end
You've got to believe
It'll be alright again
And nobody knows
What's gonna happen tomorrow
(Nobody knows)
So don't let go
Now we've come this far
Hold my hand please
Understand me
You're never alone
We've got to believe
It'll be alright in the end
(Nobody knows)
You've got to believe
It'll be alright my friend
Da, da, da, da
And yes we believe
It'll be alright again
Da, da, da, da


10.Astronaut

Makes my head stand up on end
Something alien happenin'
Synchronise but don't comprehend
'Cos where I stop that's where you begin
Another moment, I dawn it
A pleasure rising when I take the hit
And I'm addicted to state you're in
Cos you're getting me out of it

Wasted
There's nothing gonna haze this
And we're gonna go to space, yeah
'Cos I'm leaving with an astronaut

Grooving out to x-ray specs
Something tells me you're the alien sex
I can't imagine now what comes next
When this astronaut connects
Comin' on when I touch your skin
A kind of strange light you emit
I feel your gravity pull me in
Now you're getting me out of it

Wasted
There's nothing gonna haze this
And we're gonna go to space, yeah
'Cos I'm leaving with an astronaut

Wasted
There's nothing gonna haze this
And we're gonna go to space, yeah
'Cos I'm leaving with an astronaut

They're feet for quantum leap
Because space is hard and deep
And we follow giant footprints
As we fall in
Falling like the twins
Through Saturn's holy rings
And if they can't hold us
Where it's gonna end up ?
Anybody knows !

An astronaut
An astronaut

Wasted
There's nothing gonna haze this
And we're gonna go to space, yeah
'Cos I'm leaving with an astronaut

Wasted
There's nothing gonna haze this
And we're gonna go to space, yeah
'Cos I'm leaving with an astronaut

An astronaut.....

You know just where it's blowing
So fresh from your lips is born the melody

Doo doo doo, doo doo doo
(Can you taste the summer)

Taste the summer


Doo doo doo doobeedoo


12.Want You More!

Why does it feel right if you're just faking?


You had plans all along
Must have seen me coming down
A mile above the ground
'Cos I am weak where you are strong
It's a thrill that makes me curious !

Whatever I'm thinking of
You always seem to know.
'Cos nothing is good enough
There's always something
To keep me guessing

What if you knew you could ?
What if you get up on manipulating ?
Why does it feel so good ?

Drive in the car
Turn up the sound
Gets your head in the ailes
Don't matter, gonna feel the blast
I pick you up, you throw me down
And it only gets more serious !

What could you be thinking of ?
You never let it show
Cos you give me just enough
There's always something
You keep me coming !

Why does it feel right if you're just faking?
What if you knew you could ?
What if you get up on manipulating ?
Why does it feel so good ?

Why do I want you more ?
Why do I want you ?
Why do I feel so tall ?
Why do I want you more ?
Why do I want you ?
Why do I want you more !?
What could you be thinking of ?
What could you be thinking of ?
You never let it show
'Cos you just give me just enough
There's always something
You keep me coming
Why do I want you more ?
Why does it feel right if you're just faking?
What if you knew you could ?
What if you get up on manipulating ?
Why does it feel so good ?

Why do I want you more ?
Why do I want you ?
Why do I feel so tall ?
Why do I want you more ?
Why do I want you ?
Why do I want you more !?

Why do I want ?
Why do I want you more ?
Why do I want you ?
Why do I want you more !?
