1.Babe
Written：Dennis Deyoung Vocals By Dennis Deyoung
Babe, i'm leaving, i must be on my way
The time is drawing near
My train is going, i see it in your eyes
The love, the need, your tears
But i'll be lonely without you
And i'll need your love to see me through
Please believe me, my heart is in your hands
And i'll be missing you.
You know it's you babe
Whenever i get weary and i've had enough
Feel like giving up
You know it's you babe
Giving me the courage and the strength i need
Please believe that it's true
Babe, i love you.
You know it's you babe
Whenever i get weary and i've had enough
Feel like giving up
You know it's you babe
Giving me the courage and the strength i need
Please believe that it's true
Babe, i love you.
Babe, i'm leaving, i'll say it once again
Somehow try to smile
I know the feeling we're trying to forget
If only for a while
But i'll be lonely without you
And i'll need your love to see me through
Please believe me, my heart is in your hands
And i'll be missing you
Babe, i love you.
2.Blue Collar Man(Long Nights)
Written：Tommy Shaw Vocals By Tommy Shaw
Give me a job, give me security
Give me a chance to survive
I'm just a poor soul in the unemployment line
My god, i'm hardly alive
My mother and father, my wife and my friends
I see them laugh in my face
But i've got the power, and i've got the will
I'm not a charity case
I'll take those long nights, impossible odds
Keeping my eye to the keyhole
If it takes all that to be just what i am
I'm gonna be a blue collar man
Make me an offer that i can't refuse
Make me respectable, man
This is my last time in the unemployment line
So like it or not i'll take those
Long nights, impossible odds
Keeping my back to the wall
If it takes all that to be just what i am
I'm gonna be a blue collar man
Keeping my mind on a better life
When happiness is only a heartbeat away
Paradise, can it be all i heard it was
I close my eyes and maybe i'm already there
3.Boat On The River
take me back to my boat on the river
I need to go down, i need to come down
Take me back to my boat on the river
And i won't cry out any more
Time stands still as i gaze in her waters
She eases me down, touching me gently
With the waters that flow past my boat on the river
So i don't cry out anymore
Oh the river is wide
The river it touches my life like the waves on the sand
And all roads to tranquillity base
Where the frown on my face disappears
Take me down to my boat on the river
And i won't cry out anymore
Oh the river is deep
The river it touches my life like the waves on the sand
And all roads to tranquillity base
Where the frown on my face disappears
Take me down to my boat on the river
I need to go down, with you let me go down
Take me back to my boat on the river
And i won't cry out anymore
And i won't cry out anymore
And i won't cry out anymore
4.Come Sail Away
Written：Dennis Deyoung Vocals By Dennis Deyoung
I'm sailing away, set an open course for the virgin sea
I've got to be free, free to face the life that's ahead of me
On board, i'm the captain, so climb aboard
We'll search for tomorrow on every shore
And i'll try, oh lord, i'll try to carry on
I look to the sea, reflections in the waves spark my memory
Some happy, some sad
I think of childhood friends and the dreams we had
We live happily forever, so the story goes
But somehow we missed out on that pot of gold
But we'll try best that we can to carry on
A gathering of angels appeared above my head
They sang to me this song of hope, and this is what they said
They said come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me
Come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me
I thought that they were angels, but to my surprise
They climbed aboard their starship and headed for the skies
Singing come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me
Come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me
5.Crystal Ball
Written：Tommy Shaw Vocals By Tommy Shaw
I used to like to walk the straight and narrow line
I used to think that everything was fine
Sometimes i'd like to sit and gaze for days through sleepless
dreams
All alone and trapped in time
All alone and trapped in time
I wonder what tomorrow has in mind for me
Or am i even in it's mind at all
Perhaps i'll get a chance to look ahead and see
Soon as i find myself a crystal ball
Soon as i find myself a crystal ball
Tell me, tell me where i'm going
I don't know where i've been
Tell me, tell me, won't you tell me
And then tell me again
My heart is breaking, my body's aching
And i don't know where to go
Tell me, tell me, won't you tell me
I've just got to know
Crystal ball
There's so many things i need to know
Crystal ball
There's so many things i've got to know
Crystal ball
If you should see me walking
Through your dreams at night
Would you please direct me
Where i ought to be
I've been looking for a crystal ball
To shed the light
To find a future in me...
To find a future in me...
Crystal ball
There's so many things i need to know
Crystal ball
There's so many things i've got to know
Crystal ball
6.Dear John
Written：Tommy Shaw Vocals By Tommy Shaw
Dear john i knew you
About as well as anyone
We were the wild ones
So sure those days would never end
Now they're only memories my friend
Dear john i'll see you
Some day again
I swear i saw you
On a crowded street today
I almost called your name
Thinking of all those yesterdays
Heaven help me
How i miss my friend
Dear john i'll see you
Some day again
There'll be a celebration
When all will be revealed
We'll have a reunion
High on a hill
Dear john how are you
God know it's heaven where you are
Find some peace there
May it never end
Dear john my heart knows
We'll meet again
Dear john i'll see you....
Some day again
7.Fooling Yourself(The Angry Young Man)
Written：Tommy Shaw Vocals By Tommy Shaw
You see the world through your cynical eyes
You're a troubled young man i can tell
You've got it all in the palm of your hand
But your hand's wet with sweat and your head needs a rest
And you're fooling yourself if you don't believe it
You're kidding yourself if you don't believe it
How can you be such an angry young man
When your future looks quite bright to me
How can there be such a sinister plan
That could hide such a lamb, such a caring young man
You're fooling yourself if you don't believe it
You're kidding yourself if you don't believe it
Get up, get back on your feet
You're the one they can't beat and you know it
Come on, let's see what you've got
Just take your best shot and don't blow it
You're fooling yourself if you don't believe it
You're killing yourself if you don't believe it
Get up, get back on your feet
You're the one they can't beat and you know it
Come on, let's see what you've got
Just take your best shot and don't blow it
8.Lady
lady, when you're with me i'm smiling
Give me all your love
Your hands build me up when i'm sinking
Just touch me and my troubles all fade
Lady, from the moment i saw you
Standing all alone
You gave all the love that i needed
So shy, like a child who has grown
You're my lady of the morning
Love shines in your eyes
Sparkling, clear, and lovely
You're my lady
Lady, turns me on when i'm lonely
Show me all your charm
Evenings when she lays down beside me
Just take me gently into your arms
Your my lady of the morning
Love shines in your eyes
Sparkling, clear, and lovely
You're my lady
Lady of the morning
Love shines in your eyes
Sparkling, clear, and lovely
You're my ... lady
9.Lorelei
Written：Dennis Deyoung And James Young Vocals By Denni
When i think of lorelei my head turns all around
As gentle as a butterfly she moves without a sound
I call her on the telephone, she says be there by eight
Tonight's the night she's moving in and i can hardly wait
The way she moves, ooh-ooh
I gotta say
Lorelei let's live together
Brighter than the stars forever
Lorelei let's live together
Brighter than the stars forever
Her eyes become of paradise, she softly speaks my name
She brightens every lonely night, no one's quite the same
She calls me on the telephone, she says be there by eight
Tonight's the night she's moving in, it's time to celebrate
The way she moves, ooh-ooh
I gotta say
Lorelei let's live together
Brighter than the stars forever
Lorelei let's live together
Brighter than the stars forever
10.Miss America
Written：James Young Vocals By James Young
You were the apple of the public's eye as you cut the ribbon at
the local mall
A mirage for both you and us. how can it be real？
We love your body in that photograph, your home state sure must
be proud
The queen of the united states, or have you lost your crown
Well aren't you miss america
Don't you miss america
Won't you miss america
Our love
Well are you really who we think you are
Or does your smile seem to wear you down
Is the girl who you once were screaming jump out
And the dream that you must live - a disease for which there is
no cure
This roller coaster ride you're on won't stop to let you off
Well aren't you miss america
Don't you miss america
Won't you miss america
Our love
Miss america, miss america
Miss america, miss america
Well it's true just take a look - the cover sometimes makes the
book
And the judges, do they ever ask to read between your lines
In your cage at the human zoo, they all stop to look at you
Next year, what will you do when you have been forgotten
Well aren't you miss america
Don't you miss america
Won't you miss america
Our love
11.On My Way
Written：Tommy Shaw Vocals By Tommy Shaw
'...everybody plays this one right,
everybody gets a fresh, hot latte and a scone...'
Oh what a beautiful night
Couldn't get any clearer
Yeah what a wonderful sight
My old life in the rear view mirror
Hey now i'm travelin' light
Duffel bag and a six string
Yeah but it feels so right
To hear the bells of freedom ring
Gotta get away from
The same old same
Let a new day come
Start over again
Hey i was stuck in a grind
Little fish in a little pond
If i had a criminal mind
I'd have got myself a gun
Had to get away from
The ball and chain
Let a new day come
Or start goin' insane
I'm on my way
Don't know to where
But i'm gonna get there
On my way
Look at the world
With my brand new eyes
I can't believe i feel so high
I'm on my way tonight
Hey i was going to seed
Spreading out like a corn field
I had so much denial to feed
I was full of nothing real
I had to get away from
My old routine
Let a new day come
Start over again
I'm on my way
I don't know to where
But i'm gonna get there
On my way
Look at the world
Through my brand new eyes
I can't believe i get to feel
So good
So high tonight
Starting tonight
There will be
A revival
In my world
Turn on the lights
And you'll see
This one man band
Is now a symphony
And the sun
Is gonna shine
Like a summer time
That has no end
And the love
I will find
I have no doubt
That it will be mine
The love i find
Will all be mine
I had to get away while
I could still be saved
Let a new day come
Stop digging my grave
On my way...
I have faith
The road up ahead
Gonna get much easier
On my way
Look at me now
With a brand new life
I can't believe i feel so high
I'm on my way tonight
'...'scuse me, waitress, latte's and scones for everybody!...'
12.Paradise
Written：Dennis Deyoung Vocals By Dennis Deyoung
One touch was all i needed to know
You were the one for me
My fate and my destiny
You smiled and all at once i could see
I'd found a love so true
That i could give all to you
And suddenly i realized
That all the fortune and fame
Can't compare to the sound of your voice
Whenever you speak my name
Paradise is anyplace where i can be with you
Leave behind the heartache and the pain that i've been through
Safe in your arms
Safe in the world tonight
For you are my paradise
My heart was broken so many times
I couldn't imagine when
I'd ever love again
But every time i look at you
I know that i've been blessed
For i'm sure i've found heaven on earth
Each time i feel your caress
'cause paradise is anyplace where i can be with you
Leave behind the heartache and the pain that i've been through
Safe in your arms
Safe in the world tonight
For you are my paradise
And all at once i realized
That all the fortune and fame
Can't compare to the sound of your voice
Whenever you call my name
'cause paradise is anyplace where i can be with you
And leave behind the heartache and the pain that i've been
through
I'm safe in your arms
Safe in the world tonight
For you are my paradise
13.Renegade
Oh mama I'm in fear for my life
From the long arm of the law
Lawman has put an end to my running
And I'm so far from my home
Oh mama I can hear you a crying
You're so scared and all alone
Hangman is coming down from the gallows
And I don't have very long
This jig is up the news is out
They've finally found me
The renegade who had it made
Retrieved for a bounty
Never more to go astray
This will be the end today of the wanted man
Oh mama I've been years on the lam
And had a high price on my head
Lawman said get him dead or alive
Now it's for sure he'll see me dead
Dear mama I can hear you a crying
You're so scared and all alone
Hangman is coming down from the gallows
And I don't have very long
This jig is up the news is out
They've finally found me
The renegade who had it made
Retrieved for a bounty
Never more to go astray
The judge will have revenge today
On the wanted man
Oh mama I'm in fear for my life
From the long arm of the law
Hangman is coming down from the gallows
And I don't have very long
This jig is up the news is out
They've finally found me
The renegade who had it made
Retrieved for a bounty
Never more to go astray
This will be the end today of the wanted man
Wanted man
14.Rockin' The Paradise
Written：Dennis Deyoung Vocals By Dennis Deyoung
So whatcha doin' tonight？
Have you heard that the world's gone crazy？
Young americans listen when i say there's people puttin' us down
I know they're sayin' that we've gone lazy
To tell you the truth we've all seen better days
Don't need no fast buck lame duck profits for fun
Quick trick plans, take the money and run
We need long term, slow burn, getting it done
And some straight talking, hard working son of a gun.
Whatcha doin' tonight, i got faith in our generation
Let's stick together and futurize our attitudes
I ain't lookin' to fight, but i know with determination
We can challenge the schemers who cheat all the rules
Come on take pride, be wise, spottin' the fools
No more big shots, crackpots bending the rules
A fair shot here for me and for you
Knowing that we can't lose
And we'll be rockin' in paradise
Rockin' the paradise tonight
Rockin' in paradise
Rockin' the paradise tonight
Tonight, tonight...
15.Show Me The Way
every night i say a prayer in the hope that there's a heaven
And every day i'm more confused as the saints turn into sinners
All the heroes and legends i knew as a child have fallen to
idols of clay
And i feel this empty place inside so afraid that i've lost my
faith
Show me the way, show me the way
Take me tonight to the river
And wash my illusions away
Show me the way
And as i slowly drift to sleep, for a moment dreams are sacred
I close my eyes and know there's peace in a world so filled with
hatred
That i wake up each morning and turn on the news to find we've
so far to go
And i keep on hoping for a sign, so afraid that i just won't
know
Show me the way, show me the way
Take me tonight to the mountain
And take my confusion away
And if i see a light, should i believe
Tell me how will i know
Show me the way, show me the way
Take me tonight to the river
And wash my illusions away
Show me the way, show me the way
Give me the strength and the courage
To believe that i'll get there someday
Show me the way
Every night i say a prayer
In the hope that there's a heaven...
16.Snowblind
Written：Dennis Deyoung And James Young Vocals By James
Mirror, mirror on the wall
The face you've shown me scares me so
I thought that i could call your bluff
But now the lines are clear enough
Life's not pretty even though
I've tried so hard to make it so
Mornings are such cold distress
How did i ever get into this mess
I'm snowblind, can't live without you
So fine i just can't get away
Now i'm snowblind, snowblind, snowblind
Harmless and innocent you devil in white
You stole my will without a fight
You filled me with confidence, but you blinded my eyes
You tricked me with visions of paradise
Now i realize i'm
Snowblind, can't live without you
So fine i just can't get away
Now i'm snowblind, snowblind, snowblind
Mirror, mirror i confess
I can't escape this emptiness
No more reason to pretend
Here comes that same old feeling again
Snowblind, can't live without you
So fine i just can't get away
Won't you throw me a lifeline
I'm going down for the third time
I'm snowblind, and i can't get away
17.Suite Madame Blue
time after time i sit and i wait for your call
I know i'm a fool what can i say
Whatever the price i'll pay for you, madame blue
Once long ago, one word from your lips and the world turned
around
But somehow you've changed, you're so far away
I long for the past and dream of the days with you, madame blue
Suite madame blue, gaze in your looking glass
You're not a child anymore
Suite madame blue, the future is all but past
Dressed in your jewels, you made your own rules
You conquered the world and more ..............heaven's door
America....america...america..america..
America....america...america..america..
America....america...america..america..
Red white and blue, gaze in your looking glass
You're not a child anymore
Red, white, and blue, the future is all but past
So lift up your heart, make a new start
And us away from here
18.The Best Of Times
tonight's the night we'll make history, honey, you and i
And i'll take any risk to tie back the hands of time
And stay with you here tonight
I know you feel these are the worst of times
I do believe it's true
When people lock their doors and hide inside
Rumor has it it's the end of paradise
But i know, if the world just passed us by
Baby i know, you wouldn't have to cry
The best of times are when i'm alone with you
Some rain some shine, we'll make this a world for two
Our memories of yesterday will last a lifetime
We'll take the best, forget the rest
And someday we'll find these are the best of times
These are the best of times
The headlines read 'these are the worst of times'
I do believe it's true
I feel so helpless like a boat against the tide
I wish the summer winds could bring back paradise
But i know, if the world turned upside down
Baby, i know you'd always be around
The best of times are when i'm alone with you
Some rain some shine, we'll make this a world for two
Our memories of yesterday will last a lifetime
We'll take the best, forget the rest
And someday we'll find these are the best of times
These are the best of times
And
So my friends we'll say goodnight for time has claimed it's
prize
But tonight will always last
As long as we keep alive memories of paradise...
19.The Grand Illusion
Written：Dennis Deyoung Vocals By Dennis Deyoung
Welcome to the grand illusion
Come on in and see what's happening
Pay the price, get your tickets for the show
The stage is set, the band starts playing
Suddenly your heart is pounding
Wishing secretly you were a star.
But don't be fooled by the radio
The tv or the magazines
They show you photographs of how your life should be
But they're just someone else's fantasy
So if you think your life is complete confusion
Because you never win the game
Just remember that it's a grand illusion
And deep inside we're all the same.
We're all the same...
So if you think your life is complete confusion
Because your neighbors got it made
Just remember that it's a grand illusion
And deep inside we're all the same.
We're all the same...
America spells competition, join us in our blind ambition
Get yourself a brand new motor car
Someday soon we'll stop to ponder what on earth's this spell
we're under
We made the grade and still we wonder who the hell we are
20.Too Much Time On My Hands
Written：Tommy Shaw Vocals By Tommy Shaw
Sitting on this barstool talking like a damn fool
Got the twelve o'clock news blues
And i've given up hope on the afternoon soaps
And a bottle of cold brew
Is it any wonder i'm not crazy？ is it any wonder i'm sane at all
Well i'm so tired of losing- i got nothing to do and all day to
do it
I go out cruisin' but i've no place to go and all night to get
there
Is it any wonder i'm not a criminal？
Is it any wonder i'm not in jail？
Is it any wonder i've got
Too much time on my hands, it's ticking away with my sanity
I've got too much time on my hands, it's hard to believe such a
calamity
I've got too much time on my hands and it's ticking away from me
Too much time on my hands, too much time on my hands
Too much time on my hands
Well, i'm a jet fuel genius - i can solve the world's problems
Without even trying
I have dozens of friends and the fun never ends
That is, as long as i'm buying
Is it any wonder i'm not the president
(he's not the president)
Is it any wonder i'm null and void？
Is it any wonder i've got
Too much time on my hands, it's ticking away at my sanity
I've got too much time on my hands, it's hard to believe such a
calamity
I've got too much time on my hands and it's ticking away from me
Too much time on my hands, too much time on my hands
Too much time on my hands
