1.Underground
Spending nights in lonely discos
Hiding in the drunken shadows
Trying to be among the heroes
In the clothes that I had borrowed
The radio was playing music
That never really meant much to ya (you)
Waiting for something to happen
But nothing ever did....
When you hear the sound of the underground
As the beat goes down
As the beat goes 'round
When you hear the sound of the underground
You'll be lost and found
You'll be lost and found
Spending days in dusty libraries
Going through the author's mind
You said the book had really touched you
When the heroine had died
She was good at school gymnastics
Exercising her theatrics
Living in suburban sadness
'Till she felt the kick....
Where do you go？
What will you do？
Why do you try？
Why is it true？
I believed everything that you told me was true
I believed everything 'till I found out
2.Isn't It Time
Please don？t ask me any questions
I won？t tell you any lies
There？s no answers I can give you
To make everything alright
If I call again tomorrow
Would you be more civilised
I won？t ask you for forgiveness
Just to make me feel alright
I don？t need anyone
To recall what went on
But I simply need some time to get things right
Isn？t it time
That you took your own advice
Maybe I？m wrong
But then again
Maybe I？m righ t
I am writing you this letter
To remind you of the time
When you took from me what should have been
The best days of my life
I？ve forgien you for everything
That you have done to me
There are none so blind as those of us
Who？d never want to see
I won？t name any names
I won？t fuel any flames
？cause I feel so scared and I feel so ashamed
Isn？t it time
That you took your own advice
Maybe I？m wrong
But then again
Maybe I？m right
Isn？t it time
That you took your own advice
Maybe I？m wrong
But then again
Maybe I？m right.
3.New York
She fell in love with New York
She fell in love in New York
I like the way that she walked
in her bare feet in New York
And as time drifted on
We went racing in the sun
Spending days just walking streets
And the nights with village queens
She wasn？t scared of the dark
While walking ？round Prospect Park
She had her own little place
Somewhere down Brooklyn Bay
And as time drifted on
We went racing in the sun
Spending days just walking streets
And the nights with village queens
She fell in love with New York
She fell in love in New York
I like the way that she walked
in her bare feet in New York
And as time drifted on
We went racing in the sun
Spending days just walking streets
And the nights with village queens.
4.6 Becomes 9
When six becomes nine
And you still need some time
Then the city has taken its toll
When you？re laid up in bed
And you know what they said
You can hear everything through the walls
You better bow down, bow down to the one you serve
Bow down, bow down to the one you serve.
The unmarked police
Are around like disease
And you？re feeling as cold as your soul
When you wake in a sweat
With the sheets soaking wet
'cause you just won't admit to your role
You better bow down, bow down to the one you serve
Bow down, bow down to the one who hurts
You can tell them that you made it
Will you tell them that you faked it？
You better bow down, bow down to the one you serve
Bow down, bow dwon to the one you serve.
You better bow down, bow down to the one you serve
Bow down, bow down to the one who hurts
Bow down
Bow down
Bow down.
5.Sinking
Make the next one a large gin
Before I start it up aagin
Make the coldness disappear
Before I cry myself to sleep
Saint Christopher told me today
He said that we both had to stay
He said that we both had to start again
Because I？m sinking under the sea
And I？ve been so long waiting to breath
And do you know how I feel today
To watch my whole life slipping away.
I burned myself out on the trail
It doesn？t matter anyway
Saint Christopher told me today
Exactly what I had to say
He said that we both had to move away
Because I？m sinking under the sea
And I？ve been so long waiting to breath
And do you know how I feel today
To watch my whole life slipping away.
You？ll never take me alive
No matter what you do
I said no matter how you try
You？ll never take me alive
No matter what you do
I said no matter how you try.
Because I？m sinking under the sea
And I？ve been so long waiting to breath
And do you know how I feel today
To watch my whole life slipping away
Slipping away...
6.Talking About You
Talking ？bout you, talking ？bout me
What in the world it all means
Don？t want to be the one to put you down
Just want to be the one who calls around
Don？t want to be the one to cause you pain
Just want to love you again
You can make it if you try
And I nkow the reasons why
You can make it if you？d only try
Now Sinatra？s left the stage
And there？s no-one left to blame
You can make it if you？d only try
Talking ？bout you, talking ？bout me
Where in the world have we been
Don？t want to be the one to put you down
Just want to be the one who calls around
Don？t want to be the one to cause you pain
Just want to love you again
You can make it if you try
And I know the reasons why
You can make it if you？d only try
Now Sinatra？s left the stage
And there？s no-one left to blame
You can make it if you？d only try
They don？t understand
They don？t play this hand
They don？t understand
They don？t play this hand
As you watch the day go by
And you？re running out of time
You can make it if you？d only try
Now Sinatra？s left the stage
And there？s no-one left to blame
You can make it if you？d only try
If you？d only try.
7.Paradise
If I hurt you again
Would you build up a fence？
Would you turn it into hate for me？
I am down on my knees
I am begging you please
Don？t you ever lose your faith in me
Yesterday is gone
And tomorrow night may never come
And I？ll have lost another day
In Paradise.
If I come to an end
Would you start me again？
Would you keep on understanding me？
When I don？t know the way
Or the next thing to say
Would you stay with my reality？
Yesterday is gone
And tomorrow night may never come
And I？ll have lost another day
In Paradise.
Yesterday is gone
nAd tomorrow night may never come
And I？ll have lost another day
In Paradise.
8.Ancestors
The hand that writes
The words that I speak with
The way I walk The eyes that I see with
The thoughts I have
Are not all uniquely mine
The sky above
The streets that I walk through
And ancient man
Did he feell ike I do？
The wind that blows
Has been there along long time
Raise a glass to the stolen memories
Raise a glass to the empty life we lead
She said that ？I don？t know what happiness is for？
She said that ？I don？t know how I feel anymore'
The way I laugh
And certain things I do
The pain I feel
The changes I？ve been through
The blood inside
Has come from a long long line
As I went by
The burnt out remains and
The tired eyes
Of engines of trains
It was then I saw
The treasures in jars of clay
Rise above all the stolen memories
Rise above all the beauty that？s revealed
She said that ？I don？t know what happiness is for
She said that ？I don？t know how I feel anymore
She said that ？I don？t mind if you go out tonight'
She said that ？I don？t mind I trust you with my life？
In aspecy, gesture voice and voice？s tone
In my flesh, in my thoughts and in my soul
She said that ？I don？t know what happiness is for？
She said that ？I don？t know how I feel anymore'
She said that ？I don？t mind if you go out tonight'
She said that ？I don？t mind I trust you with my life？.
9.Forgiveness
They say forgiveness takes a long time
And your defence has been your worst crime
You？ve stared for days up at the ceiling
And took the instruments of healing
They battled through the ngiht
To save Her life
They said they didn？t know
If She would survive
When miracles are so much in need
By those who would forget to receive
They said the treatment takes a long time
That you？d get used to being confined
They battled through the night
To save Her life
They said they didn？t know
If She would survive.
10.Facing Silence
How can I comply？
With all these rules anymore
When everything I need
Just seems to be outside the door
How can I comply with all these rules？
When all I want is you.
Facing silence
Get me out of this one
Facing silence
Get me out of this one
Cars are going by
The glare of neon in rain
The city speeks it？s mind
While someone else is in pain
Half-read paperbacks
Around the room
And all I want is you
All I want is you
Facing silence
Get me out of this one
Facing silence
eGt me out of this one
If there？s something that you want
If there？s a life that you need
You may be living inside another Manhattan dream
But there are some things that we would never see.
Facing silence
Get me out of this one
Facing silence
Get me out of this one
Facing silence
Get me out of this one
Facing silence
Get me out of this one.
11.I Will Be King
I will be King
And you will be Queen
And no matter how they try
They？re not coming in
Thye？re not coming in.
I had a dream
You had your say
But just like the Roman Empire
We all fade away
We all die someday.
I don？t mind the game she plays
I don？t mind the things she says
It？s all in the game I know
As long as it runs, runs, runs.
I？ll wear a crown
And you？ll wear a ring
You？ll be the Queen forever
And I will be King
Yes I will be King.
I don？t mind the game she plays
I don？t mind the things she says
It？s all in the game I know
As long as it runs, runs, runs.
12.Looking For America
I Was looking for America
But instead, instead I found you
Was looking for a dream to dream
In the last days of my youth
Was waiting for hope to arrive
I remember the days I remember the nights
I remember the nights...
I wished upon a satellite
On my way back from the moon
Was looking for a beauty queen
But instead, instead I found truth
Was waiting for time to go by
I was trying to find out if the dream was alive
If the dream was alive...
Was waitnig for time to go by
I was trying to find out if the dream was alive
If the dream was alive...
