1.A Kiss Is A Terrible Thing To Waste
If you listen, to the night
You can hear the darkness call
I can barely stand to wait
I can barely stand at all
C'mon closer to me now
It's like we're sharing the same skin
We gotta get out of this jail
We gotta let the future in
So many things in your life
That your bound to regret
Why didn't i do that？
Why didn't i do this？
So many chances you lost
That you'll never forget
Why didn't i make it？
Why didn't i take it right there？
The loneliest words you'll ever know
'if only-if only it was so'
The emptiest words that there'll ever be：
'it could have been me'. 'it could have been me'
The loneliest words you'll ever know
'if only-if only it was so'
The emptiest words that there'll ever be：
'it could have been me'. 'it could have been me'
You'll have to pay for it later
If you don't get it when it's going for free
Believe me -! believe me -!
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
It's something that's always been so
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
And one of these nights
You're gonna show me that you already know
There's a feast waiting for you
And you've never even gotten a taste
It's later than you think and
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste!
You shouldn't tremble when we touch
There's no reason for these fears
It's a promise that was made
We've been promised this for years
I wanna show you it all
What to do and where and how!
Cause we'll never be as young as we are right now
We'll never be as young as we are right now!
So many cries in the night
That you try to ignore
Why didn't i do this？
Why didn't i do that？
So many unanswered prayers
So many unopened doors
Why didn't i take it？
Why didn't i make it come true？
The loneliest words you'll ever know：
'if only - if only it was so'
The emptiest words that there'll ever be：
'it could have been me'
'it could have been me'
The loneliest words you'll ever- know：
'if only - if only it was so'
The emptiest words that there'll ever be：
'it could have been me'
'it could have been me'
You'll have to pay for it later：
If you don't get it when it's going for free!
Believe me! believe me, believe me!
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
It's something that has always been so
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
And one of these nights
I'm gonna show you that you already know...
There's a feast waiting for you
And you've never even gotten a taste
It's later than, you think and
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste!
There's a feast waiting for you
And you've never even gotten a taste
It's later than you think and
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste!
Tyre tracks and broken hearts
That's all we're leaving behind!
It doesn't matter what we're losing
It only matters what we're going to find!
Tyre tracks and broken hearts
That's all we're leaving behind!
It doesn't matter what we're losing
It only matters what we're going to find!
Tyre tracks and broken hearts
That's all we're leaving behind!
It doesn't matter what we're losing
It only matters what we're going to find!
Tyre tracks and broken hearts
That's all we're leaving behind!
It doesn't matter what we're losing
It only matters what we're going to find!
There's a feast waiting for you
And you've never even gotten a taste
It's later than you think and
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
2.Bat Out Of Hell
The sirens are screaming and the fires are howling
Way down in the valley tonight
There's a man in the shadows with a gun in his eye
And a blade shining oh so bright
There's evil in the air and there's thunder in the sky
And a killer's on the bloodshot streets
And down in the tunnel where the deadly are rising
Oh i swear i saw a young boy
Down in the gutter
He was starting to foam in the heat
Oh baby you're the only thing in this whole world
That's pure and good and right
And wherever you are and wherever you go
There's always gonna be some light
But i gotta get out
I gotta break it out now
Before the final crack of dawn
So we gotta make the most of our one night together
When it's over you know
We'll both be so alone
Like a bat out of hell
I'll be gone when the morning comes
When the night is over
Like a bat out of hell i'll be gone gone gone
Like a bat out of hell i'll be gone when the morning comes
When the day is done
And the sun goes down
And the moonlight's shining through
Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven
I'll come crawling on back to you
I'm gonna hit the highway like a battering ram
On a silver black phantom bike
When the metal is hot and the engine is hungry
And we're all about to see the light
Nothing ever grows in this rotten old hole
And everything is stunted and lost
And nothing really rocks
And nothing really rolls
And nothing's ever worth the cost
And i know that i'm damned if i never get out
And maybe i'm damned if i do
But with any other beat i got left in my heart
You know i'd rather be damned with you
If i gotta be damned you know i wanna be damned
Dancing through the night with you
If i gotta be damned you know i wanna be damned
Gotta be damned you know i wanna be damned
If gotta be damned you know i wanna be damned
Dancing through the night
Dancing through the night
Dancing through the night with you
Oh baby you're the only thing in this whole world
That's pure and good and right
And wherever you are and wherever you go
There's always gonna be some light
But i gotta get out
I gotta break it out now
Before the final crack of dawn
So we gotta make the most of our one night together
When it's over you know
We'll both be so alone
Like a bat out of hell
I'll be gone when the morning comes
When the night is over
Like a bat out of hell i'll be gone
Like a bat out of hell i'll be gone when the morning comes
But when the day is done
And the sun goes down
And the moonlight's shining through
Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven
I'll come crawling on back to you
Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven
I'll come crawling on back to you
I can see myself
Tearing up the road
Faster than any other boy has ever gone
And my skin is rough but my soul is ripe
And no one's gonna stop me now
I gotta make my escape
But i can't stop thinking of you
And i never see the sudden curve until it's way too late
I never see the sudden curve until it's way too late
Then i'm dying on the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun
Torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike
And i think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell
And the last thing i see is my heart
Still beating
Breaking out of my body
And flying away
Like a bat out of hell
Then i'm dying at the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun
Torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike
And i think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell
And the last thing i see is my heart
Still beating
Still beating
Breaking out of my body and flying away
Like a bat out of hell
Like a bat out of hell
Like a bat out of hell
Like a bat out of hell
Like a bat out of hell
Like a bat out of hell
3.Dead Ringer For Love
Every night i grab some money and i go down to the bar
I got my buddies and a beer, i got a dream, i need a car
You got me begging on my knees, c'mon and throw the dog a bone
A man he doesn't live by rock 'n roll and brew alone
Baby baby, baby baby
Chorus：
Rock 'n roll and brew, rock 'n roll and brew
They don't mean a thing when i compare 'em next to you
Rock 'n roll and brew, rock 'n roll and brew
I know that you and i oh we got better things to do
I don't know who you are or what you do, or where you go when
you're not around
I don't know anything about you baby, but you're everything i'm
dreaming of
I don't know who you are, but you're a real dead ringer for love
A real dead ringer for love
(girl：) ever since i can remember you been hanging 'round this
joint
You been trying to look away but now you finally got the point
I don't have to know your name and i won't tell you what to do
But a girl - she doesn't live by only rock 'n roll and brew
Baby baby, baby baby - chorus
You got the kind of legs that do more than walk
(girl：) i don't have to listen to your whimpering talk
(boy：) listen you got the kind of eyes that do more than see
(girl：) you got a lotta nerve to come on to me
(boy：) you got the kind of lips that do more than drink
(girl：) you got the kind of mind that does less than think
But since i'm feeling kinda lonely and my defenses are low
Why don't you give it a shot and get it ready to go
I'm looking for anonymous and fleeting satisfaction
And i want to tell my daddy i'll be missing in action
Ever since i can remember i've been hanging 'round this joint
My daddy never noticed, now he'll finally get the point
(boy：) you got me beggin' on my knees, c'mon and throw the dog a
bone
A man he doesn't live by rock 'n roll and brew alone
Baby baby - chorus
Dead ringer for love
Dead ringer for love - dead ringer (repeats 12x)
4.Heaven Can Wait
Heaven can wait
And a band of angels wrapped up in my heart
Will take me through the lonely night
Through the cold of the day
And i know
I know
Heaven can wait
And all the gods come down here just to sing for me
And the melody's gonna make me fly
Without pain
Without fear
Give me all of your dreams
And let me go along on your way
Give me all of your prayers to sing
And i'll turn the night into the skylight of day
I got a taste of paradise
I'm never gonna let it slip away
I got a taste of paradise
It's all i really need to make me stay --
Just like a child again
Heaven can wait
And all i got is time until the end of time
I won't look back
I won't look back
Let the altars shine
And i know that i've been released
But i don't know to where
And nobody's gonna tell me know
And i don't really care
No no no
I got a taste of paradise
That's all i really need to make me stay
I got a taste of paradise
If i had it any sooner you know
You know i never would have run away from my home
Heaven can wait
And all i got is time until the end of time
I won't look backr
I won't look back
Let the altars shine
Heaven can wait
Heaven can wait
I won't look back
I won't look back
Let the altars shine
Let the altars shine
5.Home By Now／no Matter What
The locusts are singing
The sun is red
It's gotten so late somehow
There's gonna be trouble
You know what they said
We should have been home by now
We should have been home by now
The thunder is rolling
The sky is black
It's gotten so dark somehow
There's gonna be danger
God i wish we were back
We should have been home by now
We should have been home by now
No matter what they tell us
No matter what they do
No matter what they teach us
What we believe is true
No matter what they call us
However they attack
No matter where they take us
We'll find our own way back
I can't deny what 1 believe
I can't be what i'm not
I know i'll love forever, i know -
No matter what.
If only tears were laughter
If only night was day
If only prayers were answered.
Then we would hear god say：
No matter what they tell you
No matter what they do
No matter what they teach you
What you believe is true
And i will keep you safe and strong
And sheltered from the storm
No matter where it's barren
A dream is being born
No matter where they follow
No matter where they lead
No matter how they judge us
I'll be everyone you need
No matter if the sun don't shine
Or if the skies are blue
No matter what the ending
My life began with you
I can't deny what i believe
I can't be what i'm not
I know this love's forever
I know no matter what
I can't deny what believe
I can't be what i'm not
I know this love's forever
That's all that matters now
No matter what
The thunder is rolling
The sky is black
It's gotten so dark somehow
There's gonna be danger god, i wish we were back
We should have been home by now
We should have been home by now
6.I'd Do Anything For Love(But I Won't Do That)
and i would do anything for love, i'd run right into hell and
back
I would do anything for love, i'll never lie to you and that's a
fact
But i'll never forget the way you feel right now, oh no, no way
And i would do anything for love, but i won't do that, i won't
do that
Anything for love, oh i would do anything for love
I would do anything for love, but i won't do that, oh i won't do
that
Some days it don't come easy, and some days it don't come hard
Some days it don't come at all, and these are the days that
never end
Some nights you're breathing fire, and some nights you're carved
in ice
Some nights you're like nothing i've ever seen before or will
again
Maybe i'm crazy, but it's crazy and it's true
I know you can save me, no one else can save me now but you
As long as the planets are turning, as long as the stars are
burning
As long as your dreams are coming true, you better believe it
That i would do anything for love, and i'll be there til the
final act
I would do anything for love, and i'll take a vow and seal a
pact
But i'll never forgive myself if we don't go all the way tonight
And i would do anything for love, oh i would do anything for
love
Oh i would do anything for love, but i won't do that, no i won't
do that
I would do anything for love, anything you've been dreaming of
But i just won't do that
Some days i pray for silence, and somedays i pray for soul
Some days i just pray to the god of sex and drums and rock 'n
roll
Some nights i lose the feeling, and some nights i lose control
Some nights i just lose it all when i watch you dance and the
thunder rolls
Maybe i'm lonely and that's all i'm qualified to be
There's just one and only, the one and only promise i can keep
As long as the wheels are turning, as long as the fires are
burning
As long as your prayers are coming true, you better believe it
That i would do anything for love, and you know it's true and
that's a fact
I would do anything for love, and there'll never be no turning
back
But i'll never do it better than i do it with you, so long, so
long
And i would do anything for love, oh i would do anything for
love
I would do anything for love, but i won't do that, no no no i
won't do that
I would do anything for love, anything you've been dreaming of
But i just won't do that
But i'll never stop dreaming of you every night of my life, no
way
And i would do anything for love, oh i would do anything for
love
I would do anything for love
But i won't do that
No i won't do that
Will you raise me up, will you help me down？
Will you get me right out of this godforsaken town？
Will you make it all a little less cold？
I can do that! i can do that!
Will you hold me sacred？ will you hold me tight？
Can you colorize my life, i'm so sick of black and white？
Can you make it all a little less old？
I can do that! oh oh, now i can do that!
Will you make me some magic, with your own two hands？
Can you build an emerald city with these grains of sand？
Can you give me something i can take home？
I can do that! oh oh now, i can do that!
Will you cater to every fantasy i got？
Will ya hose me down with holy water, if i get too hot？
Will you take me places i've never known？
I can do that! oh oh now, i can do that!
After a while you'll forget everything
It was a brief interlude and a midsummer night's fling
And you'll see that it's time to move on
I won't do that! no i won't do that!
I know the territory, i've been around
It'll all turn to dust and we'll all fall down
And sooner or later, you'll be screwing around
I won't do that! no i won't do that!
Anything for love, oh i would do anything for love
I would do anything for love, but i won't do that, no i won't do
that
7.I'd Lie For You(And That's The Truth)
I'd never tell you one lie.
I'd never let you down.
I'd never leave i'd be the one who'd always be around.
Baby give me a chance.
I'd pull the sun down from the sky.
To light your darkest night.
I'd never let one drop of rain fall down into your life.
Put your heart in my hands.
Baby believe me, i could never do you wrong.
And i would never paint your world blue.
And if sometimes it seems i must lost my mind.
I might be crazy, but i'm crazy about you.
I'd lie for you and that's the truth.
Do anything you asked me to.
I'd even sell my soul for you.
I'd do it all for you.
If you'd just believe in me.
Just take a look in my eyes.
You'd see a love that's blind.
Just take a hold of my hand.
I'll take you to paradise.
Ain't a star that's too far.
Every wish will be a wish.
That i will make come true.
And if you want the moon.
I swear i'll bring it down to you.
Let me into your heart.
Believe me baby.
Got your name carved on my soul.
'cause your the only one that i'll give it too.
Go let'em say that i'm fool to act this way.
'cause if i'm crazy, i'm just crazy 'bout you.
I'd lie for you and that's the truth.
Do anything you asked me to.
I'd even sell my soul for you.
I'd do it all for you.
If you'd just believe in me.
I'd lie for you and that's the truth.
Do anything you asked me to.
I'd even sell my soul for you.
I'd do it all for you.
If you'd just believe in me.
I'd lie for you and that's the truth.
Move mountains if you want me to.
I'd walk across the fire for you.
I'd walk across the wild for you.
If you'd just believe in me.
And you will never see a day.
I'll ever break your heart.
You'll see the sky fall down.
Before it ever gets that far.
I'll show you heaven.
Every second that your in my arms.
Baby, i'm crazy, but i'm crazy 'bout you.
I'd lie for you and that's the truth.
Do anything you asked me to.
I'd even sell my soul for you.
I'd do it all for you.
If you'd just believe in me.
I'd lie for you and that's the truth.
Do anything you asked me to.
I'd even sell my soul for you.
I'd do it all for you.
If you'd just believe in me.
I'd lie for you and that's the truth.
Move mountains if you want me to.
I'd walk across the fire for you.
I'd walk across the wild for you.
If you'd just believe in me.
I'd lie for you and that's the truth.
Do anything you asked me to.
I'd even sell my soul for you.
I'd do it all for you.
If you'd just believe in me.
I'd lie for you and that's the truth.
Do anything you asked me to.
I'd even sell my soul for you.
I'd do it all for you.
If you'd just believe in me.
I'd lie for you and that's the truth.
Move mountains if you want me to.
I'd walk across the fire for you.
I'd walk across the wild for you.
If you'd just believe in me.
8.Is Nothing Sacred
If a love as strong as ours
Couldn't make it all the way,
Can anything make sense at all？
If a love so deep and true
Couldn't stand the test of time,
Then mount everest could slide,
And jeruselem could fall.
Is nothing sacred anymore？
Is forever just another word？
Is a promise something people used to keep
When love was worth fighting for？
If we can say good-bye,
If we can say good-bye,
Is nothing sacred anymore？
If we can say good-bye
Is nothing sacred anymore？
I can hear the final words
Every sentence that was said
Don't know what turned our lives around.
It doesn't matter who was right,
There's no justice in a dream.
Never thought a heart could break
Without making any sound.
Is nothing sacred anymore？
Is forever just another word？
Is a promise something people used to keep
When love was worth fighting for？
If we can say good-bye,
If we can say good-bye,
Is nothing sacred anymore？
If we can say good-bye
If we can say good-bye
Is nothing sacred anymore？
Our love was as certain as the dawn,
As solid and save as any love could be.
Our love was the star you wished upon,
And you thought that i saved you,
Could've sworn that you saved me.
Is nothing sacred anymore？
Is forever just another word？
Is a promise something people used to keep
When love was worth fighting for？
If we can say good-bye,
If we can say good-bye,
Is nothing sacred anymore？
Is nothing sacred anymore？
Is forever just another word？
Is a promise something people used to keep
When love was worth fighting for？
If we can say good-bye,
If we can say good-bye,
Is nothing sacred anymore？
If we can say good-bye,
If we can say good-bye...
Is nothing sacred anymore...
Is nothing sacred anymore...
Is nothing sacred anymore...
9.Life Is A Lemon And I Want My Money Back
I want my money back
I want my money back
It's all or nothing
And nothing's all i ever get
Every time i turn it on
I burn it up and burn it out
It's always something
There's always something going wrong
That's the only guarantee
That's what this is all about
It's a never ending attack
Everything's a lie, and that's a fact
Life is a lemon and i want my money back!
And all the morons
And all the stooges with their coins
They're the ones who make the rules
It's not a game - it's just a rout
There's desperation
There's desperation in the air
It leaves a stain on all your clothes
And no detergant gets it out
And we're always slipping through the the cracks
Then the movie's over - fade to black
Life is a lemon and i want my money back!
I want my money back
I want my money back
What about love？
It's defective!
It's always breaking in half
What about sex？!
It's defective!
It's never built to really last
What about your family？
It's defective!
All the batteries are shot
What about your friends？
They're defective!
All the parts are out of stock
What about hope？
It's defective!
It's corroded and decayed
What about faith？
It's defective!
It's tattered and it's frayed
What about your gods？
They're defective!
They forgot the warranty
What about your town？
It's defective!
It's a dead end street to me
What about your school？
It's defective!
It's a pack of useless lies
What about your work？
It's defective!
It's a crock and then you die
What about your childhood？
It's defective!
It's dead and buried in the past
What about your future？
It's defective!
And you can shove it up your ass!!
I want my money back
I want my money back
It's all or nothing
And nothing's all i ever get
Every time i turn it on
I burn it up and burn it out
It's a never ending attack
Everything's a lie, and that's a fact
Life is a lemon and i want my money back!
And we're always slipping through the the cracks
Then the movie's over-fade to black
Life is a lemon and i want my money back!
10.Midnight At The Lost And Found
Hey ricky, now mine is empty, how about one for you
We could sell it out together, seems tomorrow's overdue
Captain video, done went home, one pilot laid to rest
And dragon ladies now talk that talk, about who loves who, who
loves best
Silver bullets in the jukebox, spin another round
Everybody at the back of the line, it's midnight at the lost and
found
Chorus：
Midnight at the lost and found, lost souls in the hunting ground
A remedy for all your ills, at the lost and found
Midnight at the lost and found, midnight
Have a double, it's gettin' late, you'll get home, just rely on
fate
Place just finally came alive, good old boys just arrived
Stools keep changin' faces, and the night just slips away
And like a long distance love affair, soon you've got to pay
Silver bullets in the jukebox, spin another round
Everybody at the back of the line, it's midnight at the lost and
found
(chorus)
Hangin' on barely, hitch a ride away
Belly up and bury, boy, all the hurt you feel today
Hangin' on barely, hitch a ride away
Belly up and bury, boy, all the hurt you feel today
Silver bullets in the jukebox, spin another round
Everybody get back in line, last call for the lost and found
(chorus repeats out...)
(chorus)
11.Modern Girl
Once a beautiful miss america married mr. right
Had a little baby girl, born on a stormy night
But that was once upon a time, now it's a brand new world
Gimme the future, gimme the future, gimme the future with a
modern girl
Gimme the future, gimme the future, gimme the future with a
modern girl
Somewhere just between the past and somethin' dawnin' new
There's a break in the chain, there's a skip in the clock
Girl that's where i'm gonna find you
Between the boy i was before and what i'm gonna be
There's a clash on the border, a flame in the sky
Girl that's where you're gonna find me
Can't you hear the planet groanin' like a broken down machine
Rusted with the guilty tears of fallen kings and queens
But you and i stand innocent, baby it's a brand new world
Gimme the future, gimme the future, gimme the future with a
modern girl
Gimme the future, gimme the future, gimme the future with a
modern girl
(gimme the future, gimme the future, gimme the future with a
modern girl)
Bridge：
We're the son and the daughter on a new freeway
(gimme the future, gimme the future)
Laughin' while the road maps blow away
(gimme the future with a modern girl)
We're the son and the daughter and we ain't afraid
(gimme the future, gimme the future)
Won't be makin' the mistakes our fathers made
(gimme the future with a modern girl)
(gimme the future, gimme the future) oh, gimme the future with a
modern girl
(gimme the future, gimme the future) oh, gimme the future with a
modern girl
Once a beautiful miss america married mr. right
Had a little baby boy, born on a stormy night
But that was once upon a time, now it's a brand new world
Gimme the future, gimme the future - gimme the future with a
modern girl...
(repeats out)

12.Nocturnal Pleasure
The entire city is burning
You can see the flames like the inside of a mad jukebox
Lost boys stalk the streets with those jungle markings on their
chests
Barbarians prowl in shadows, their heads rocking with rodents
Motorcycles reproduce in nocturnal alleys groaning with greasy
pleasure
And they've blown up the ywca like a giant balloon
And sent it out to sea full of screaming, lovely, lonely girls
13.Not A Dry Eye In The House
not a dry eye in the house
After loves curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking
I can still see you standing there
Midnight wind blowing through your hair
Kisses sweet in the salty air
When love was forever
Turn the page and we fade to blue
The scene has changed now i'm without you
Walked away when the act was through
And the dream was over
It was almost like a movie - the way you said goodbye
You must have a lot of time rehearsing each and every line
Now there's not a dry eye in the house
After loves curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking
Not a smile left on my face
The ending's just too sad to take
And there's not a dry eye
Not a dry eye in the house
The greatest story was you and me
Had it all we had everything, but now the
Story's done it's just history
The last act is over
You every line had the sweetest sound
Your every touch turned my world around
But the light came up and my world crashed down
End of show - it's over
It was almost like a movie
Those nights we touched the stars
Time stood still for you and i
Now it's sad enough to make you cry
Now there's not a dry eye in the house
After love's curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking
Not a smile left on my face
The ending's just too sad to take
And there's not a dry eye
Not a dry eye in the house
Act one - the story's just begun
Act two - i fell in love with you
Act three - knew it was meant to be
Act four - you don't love me no more
And there's not a dry eye in the house
After love's curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking
Not a smile left on my face
The ending's just too sad to take
And there's not a dry eye
Not a dry eye
Not a dry eye in the house
After love's curtain comes down
Listen and you'll hear the sound
Hear the sound of a heart breaking
Not a dry eye in the house (3x)
14.Objects In The Rear View Mirror May Appear Closer Than They Are
objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
The skies were pure and the fields were green
And the sun was brighter than it's ever been
When i grew up with my best friend kenny
We were close as any brothers than you ever knew
It was always summer and the future called
We were ready for adventures and we wanted them all
And there was so much left to dream and so much time to make it
real
But i can still recall the sting of all the tears when he was
gone
They said he crashed and burned
I know i'll never learn why any boy should die so young
We were racing, we were soldiers of fortune
We got in trouble but we sure got around
There are times i think i see him peeling out of the dark
I think he's right behind me now and he's gaining ground
But it was long ago and it was far away, oh god it seems so very
far
And if life is just a highway, then the soul is just a car
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they
are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they
are
And when the sun descended and the night arose
I heard my father cursing everyone he knows
He was dangerous and drunk and defeated
And corroded by failure and envy and hate
There were endless winters and the dreams would freeze
Nowhere to hide and no leaves on the trees
And my father's eyes were blank as he hit me again and again and
again
I know i still believe he'd never let me leave, i had to run
away alone
So many threats and fears, so many wasted years before my life
became
My own
And though the nightmares should be over
Some of the terrors are still intact
I'll hear that ugly coarse and violent voice
And then he grabs me from behind and then he pulls me back
There was a beauty living on the edge of town
And she always put the top up and the hammer down
And she taught me everything i'll ever know
About the mystery and the muscle of love
The stars would glimmer and the moon would glow
I'm in the back seat with my julie like a romeo
And the signs along the highway all said, caution! kids at play!
Those were the rights of spring and we did everything
There was salvation every night
We got our dreams reborn and our upholstery torn
But everything we tried was right
She used her body just like a bandage
She used my body just like a wound
I'll probably never know where she disappeared
But i can see her rising up out of the back seat now
Just like an angel rising up from a tomb
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they
are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they
are
She used her body just like a bandage
She used my body just like a wound
I'll probably never know where she disappeared
But i can see her rising up out of the back seat now
15.Paradise By The Dashboard Light
i. paradise
Boy：
I remember every little thing
As if it happened only yesterday
Parking by the lake
And there was not another car in sight
And i never had a girl
Looking any better than you did
And all the kids at school
They were wishing they were me that night
And now our bodies are oh so close and tight
It never felt so good, it never felt so right
And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a
Knife
Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
C'mon! hold on tight!
C'mon! hold on tight!
Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night
I can see paradise by the dashboard light

And now our bodies are oh so close and tight
It never felt so good, it never felt so right
And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a
Knife
Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
C'mon! hold on tight!
C'mon! hold on tight!
Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night
I can see paradise by the dashboard light
Oh it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night
Paradise by the dashboard light
You got to do what you can
And let mother nature do the rest
Ain't no doubt about it
We were doubly blessed
Cause we were barely seventeen
And we were barely --

Iii. praying for the end of time
Boy：
I couldn't take it any longer
Lord i was crazed
And when the feeling came upon me
Like a tidal wave
I started swearing to my god and on my mother's
Grave
That i would love you to the end of time
I swore that i would love you to the end of time!
So now i'm praying for the end of time
To hurry up and arrive
Cause if i gotta spend another minute with you
I don't think that i can really survive
I'll never break my promise or forget my vow
But god only knows what i can do right now
I'm praying for the end of time
It's all that i can do
Praying for the end of time, so i can end my time
With you!!!
Boy：
It was long ago and it was far away
And it was so much better than it is today
Girl：
It never felt so good
It never felt so right
And we were glowing like
A metal on the edge of a knife
16.Rock And Roll Dreams Come Through
You can't run away forever
But there's nothing wrong with getting a good head start
You want to shut out the night
You want to shut down the sun
You want to shut away the pieces of a broken heart
Thing of how we'd lay down together
We'd be listening to the radio so loud and so strong
Every golden nugget coming like a gift of the gods
Someone must have blessed us when he gave us those songs
I treasure your love
I never want to lose it
You've been through the fires of hell
And i know you've got the ashes to prove it
I treasure your love
I want to show you how to use it
You've been through a lot of pain in the dirt
And i know you've got the scars to prove it
Remember everything that i told you
Well i'm telling you again that it's true
When you're alone and afraid
And you're completely amazed
To find there's nothing anybody can do
Keep on believing
And you'll discover baby
There's always something magic
There's always something new
And when you really, really need it the most
That's when rock and roll dreams come through
The beat is yours forever
The beat is always true
And when you really, really need it the most
That's when rock and roll dreams come through...for you...
Once upon a time was a backbeat
Once upon a time all the chords came to life
And the angels had guitars even before they had wings
If you hang on to a chorus you get through the night
I treasure your love
I never want to lose it
You've been through the fires of hell
And i know you've got the ashes to prove it
I treasure your love
I want to show you how to use it
You've been through a lot of pain in the dirt
And i know you've got the scars to prove it
Remember everything that i told you
Well i'm telling you again that it's true
You're never alone cause you can put on the phones
And let the drummer tell your heart ehat to do
Keep on believing
And you'll discover baby
There's always something magic
There's always something new
And when you really, really need it the most
That's when rock and roll dreams come through
The beat is yours forever
The beat is always true
And when you really, really need it the most
That's when rock and roll dreams come through...for you...
17.Two Out Of Three Ain't Bad
Baby we can talk all night
But that ain't getting us nowhere
I told you everything i possibly can
There's nothing left inside of here
And maybe you can cry all night
But that'll never change the way that i feel
The snow is really piling up outside
I wish you wouldn't make me leave here
I poured it on and i poured it out
I tried to show you just how much i care
I'm tired of words and i'm too hoarse to shout
But you've been cold to me so long
I'm crying icicles instead of tears
And all i can do is keep on telling you
I want you
I need you
But -- there ain't no way i'm ever gonna love you
Now don't be sad
'cause two out of three ain't bad
Now don't be sad
'cause two out of three ain't bad
You'll never find your gold on a sandy beach
You'll never drill for oil on a city street
I know you're looking for a ruby in a mountain of rocks
But there ain't no coupe de ville hiding at the bottom of a
cracker jack box
I can't lie
I can't tell you that i'm something i'm not
No matter how i try
I'll never be able
To give you something
Something that i just haven't got
There's only one girl that i will ever love
And that was so many years ago
And though i know i'll never get her out of my heart
She never loved me back
Ooh i know
I remember how she left me on a stormy night
She kissed me and got out of our bed
And though i pleaded and i begged her not to walk out that door
She packed her bags and turned right away
And she kept on telling me
She kept on telling me
She kept on telling me
I want you
I need you
But there ain't no way i'm ever gonna love you
Now don't be sad
'cause two out of three ain't bad
I want you
I need you
But there ain't no way i'm ever gonna love you
Now don't be sad
'cause two out of three ain't bad
Don't be sad
'cause two out of three ain't bad
Baby we can talk all night
But that ain't getting us nowhere
18.You Took The Words Right Out Of My Mouth(Hot Summer Night)
Boy：on a hot summer night would you offer your throat to the
wolf with the red roses？
Girl：will he offer me his mouth？
Boy：yes
Girl： will he offer me his teeth？
Boy： yes
Girl： will he offer me his jaws？
Boy： yes
Girl： will he offer me his hunger？
Boy： yes
Girl： again, will he offer me his hunger？
Boy： yes!
Girl： and will he starve without me？
Boy： yes!
Girl： and does he love me？
Boy： yes
Girl： yes
Boy： on a hot summer night would you offer your throat to the
wolf with the red roses？
Girl： yes
Boy： i bet you to say that to all the boys.
It was a hot summer night and the beach was burning
There was fog crawling over the sand
When i listened to your heart i hear the whole world turning
I see the shooting stars
Falling through your trembling hands
You were licking your lips and your lipstick shining
I was dying just to ask for a taste
We were lying together in a silver lining
By the light of the moon
You know there's not another moment
Not another moment
Not another moment to waste
When you hold me so close that my knees grow weak
And my soul is flying high above the ground
I'm trying to speak but no matter what i do
I just can't seem to make any sound
And then you took the words right out of my mouth
Oh it must have been while you were kissing me
You took the words right out of my mouth
And i swear it's true
I was just about to say i love you
And then you took the words right out of my mouth
Oh it must have been while you were kissing me
You took the words right out of my mouth
And i swear it's true
I was just about to say i love you
Now my body is shaking like a wave on the water
And i guess that i'm beginning to grin
Oooh, we're finally alone and we can do what we want to
The night is young
And ain't no one gonna know where you
No one gonna know where you
No one's gonna know where you've been
You were licking your lips and your lipstick shining
I was dying just to ask for a taste
We were lying together in a silver lining
By the light of the moon
You know there's not another moment
Not another moment
Not another moment to waste
And then you took the words right out of my mouth
Oh it must have been while you were kissing me
