3.You On My Mind

Friends say i'll get over you soon
Thoughts of you come back to fill me with gloom
Time forgets but i'm not over you yet
There's no sense of asking why
Until the tears run dry

There's no one but you on my mind
Serching for a perfect ending that we'll never find
If we could make it work this time

Years have flown by since you've been gone
This broken heart of mine's been waiting too long
All alone wihout you i can't carry on
There's no sense of asking why
Until i'm there by your side

There's no one but you on my mind
Searching for a perfect ending that we'll never find
If we could make it work this time
We could plant tomorrows dreams now together
In a garden to last forever more
All the flowers would grow
From the seeds we'd sow...

There's no one but you on my mind
Searching for a perfect ending that we'll never find
If we could make it work this time

There's no sense of asking why
Until the tears run dry
I could be there by your side
If you would only change your mind
If we could make it work this time


4.Where In The World

Too hot
Too cold
I'm sick and tired of doing what i'm told
It's not that my circumstances have't changed
Can't appreciate
I know they're lying all the same

All i'm asking of you now
All i'm asking of you now
Where in the world must i go to find you?

Can't sleep
Can't eat
My whole body seems intent on defeat
Keep telling me my condition hasn't changed
Can't appreciate there's no one but myself to blame

All i'm asking of you now
All i'm asking of you now
Where in the world must i go to find you?

All i'm asking of you now
All i'm asking of you now
Where in the world must i go to find you?

Where in the world must i go to find you?
Where in the world
Where in the world

Keep telling me my condition hasn't changed
Can't appreciate there's no one but myself to blame
All i'm asking of you now
All i'm asking of you now
Where in the world must i go to find you?

All i'm asking of you now
All i'm asking of you now
Where in the world must i go to find you?

Where in the world must i go to find you?
Where in the world must i go to find you?
Where in the world must i go to find you?
Where in the world must i go to find you?
Where in the world must i go to find you?
Even in our wildest dreams
Here and now
Here and now
Here and now


5.Forever Blue

Nights don't come any longer
Days seem to last forever
Nothing you can do
Could bring him back to you
Forever blue

Trying hard to force a smile behind your tears
Though you try these memories won't disappear
Your heart's still beating out of time

Nights don't come any longer
Days seem to last forever
Nothing you can do
Could bring him back to you
Forever blue

Memories don't come stronger
Dreams lost and gone forever
Softly whispering
Won't bring him back to you
Forever blue

Close your eyes but you still see, though love is blind
Though you try just can't leave the past behind
He's on your mind

You'll forget him
Like he forgot you
Nothing you could do
Could bring him back to you
You'll be forever blue

Nights don't come any longer
Days seem to last forever
Nothing you can do
Could bring him back to you
Forever blue

Memories don't come stronger
Dreams lost and gone forever
Softly whispering
Won't bring him back to you
Forever blue


6.Heart For Hire

Every face you see is you
My memories just fade to blue
When i think of you
My disillsuionment is past
Dreams never meant to last

Now there's nothing left to hide
I've disregarded foolish pride
Too many times

If you should go...
If you should go...
If you should go...

This heart's for hire

You brought me reeling to my senses
With lies and broken promises
There's no turning back
Words sad in heated moment
Leave me tormented still

Now there's nothing left to hide
I've disregarded foolish pride
Too many times

It makes no difference if i go or stay
Re-enacting the same scene over again
And again

If you should go...
If you should go...
If you should go...

This heart's for hire
This heart's for hire
This heart's for hire
This heart's for hire


7.Tainted

Always together
Together but always alone
If living's a sentence
What kind of existance is this one?

The feelings are there
But our hears have been missing for so long
There's nothing to share
We've been going nowhere for too long

Tainted
Words that weren't intended to be said
Tainted
Though your pride fights to the bitter end

Always together
Temptation has torn us apart
Lies last forever
The only way out is a clean start

Tainted
Words that weren't intended to be said
Tainted
Though your pride fights to the bitter end...


8.Waiting Game

I've spent too much time
Waiting for you in vain
I can't hear your voice
Although i call your name
I can't go on but i still hang on just the same

I've spent endless nights
Crying you name out loud
But still remain
Alone in an empty crowd
Als time goes on i realize you'll never change

I say a prayer
I count the hours
I hear a voice but it's not yours
I count the score
I can't go on playing the waiting game

If you should ever change your mind
I'll be there just call my name
Unitl then i'll be playing the waiting game

I've waited too long
Wishing my life away
Convincing myself
Tomorrow you'd change your ways
I can't go on but i still hang on just the same

I say a prayer
I count the hours
I hear a voice but it's not yours
I count the score
I can't go on playing the waiting game

All you left me with emptiness
Now everyday seems the same
You've gone but i'm still playing the waiting game

If you should ever change your mind
I'll be there just call my name
Unitl then i'll be playing the waiting game

I've waited too long for you to change your ways
Playing the waiting game

All you left me with emptiness
Now everyday seems the same
You've gone but i'm still playing the waiting game

If you should ever change your mind
I'll be there just call my name
Unitl then i'll be playing the waiting game


9.Precious Words

Another strange awakening
Another memory on its way
Another night in an empty room
Another throw away day

How long
Must i go on fooling myself
In a world of make-believe

Precious words
Are all that i have left to prove
That i've nothing more left to lose

Precious words won't bring you back to me
Precious words won't bring you back to me

Loneliness says much more
Than a thousand words ever said
Coversations pass me by
I'm left with silence instead

How long must i go on fooling myself
In a world of make-believe

Precious words
Are all that i have left to prove
That i've nothing more left to lose

Precious words won't bring you back to me
Precious words won't bring you back to me

You left my world empty
Now there's nothing to say

Precious words
Won't bring you back to me...

How long
Must i go on fooling myself
In a world of make-believe

Precious words
Are all that i have left to prove
That i've nothing more left to lose

Precious words won't bring you back to me
Precious words won't bring you back to me
You left my world empty
Now there's nothing to say
Precious words
Won't bring you back to me


10.Masquerade

A thousand words can hide
Behind averted eyes
Emotionless
In a web of lies

Forbidden thoughts you keep
Awake you when you sleep
The truth is blind
To your cold deceit

Turning your face away from a truth you'll never find
Behind this masquerade

Turning your back says much more than words could ever hide
Behind this masquerade

You've gone too far
To stop hiding behind this masquerade

A force of evil reigns
As silence stakes its claim
Invisible
As a greived heart prays

When innocense is lost
Your conscience pays the cost
No sacrifice
Will bring back the past

Playing for time you'll find tomorrow never comes
Behind this masqurade

Living a lie you'll soon find what you've been running from
Behind this masqurade

You've gone too far
To stop hiding behind this masquerade

You've gone too far
To stop living behind this masquerade

Baba dub ba dub baba dub ba etc...


11.Between Strangers

There's an empty space
That was once filled with tenderness
Blinded by the charms of a strangers caress

Sorrow is her only souvenir
Memories nobody wants to share

It's not too late to start again
Days go by and seasons change
Nothing stays the same
Life's an endless game
Between strangers

There's an empty room
Where fantasies flicker and fade
She no longer hears the thoughts inside her head

Sorrow is her only souvenir
Memories nobody wants to share

It's not too late to start again
Days go by and seasons change
Nothing stays the same
Life's an endless game
Between strangers

Don't let love be your mistake
The decision's yours to make
Though you try to hide
What you try to hide
What you feel inside
Between strangers
