1.Back Into My Life

Lyricist:Lyons Graham John, Mogg Phillip John, Way Peter Fredrick

It's another night out on the avenue
Lookin' for somethin', somethin' that you knew
And you're wonderin' where she is
Now there's, now there's no more rendezvous

You're left out here on this cold stark street
With the sound of lovers as they tango and meet
Their sweet surrender with a promise and a kiss
Where's that girl the one you miss

Those ooh la la la girls in their skirts they go rushin' by
They look around and give you that come on
With their dreamy, dreamy eyes

Then you never stop to count your mistakes
That one blind moment with no give and take
Is lost in every stranger's face you see
If there's a loser that loser's me

Please put a little love back into my life
Won't you please put a little love back into my life

Every night's another night you keep lookin' back
Trying to fill the spaces
Hours and minutes and the missin' gaps

But you're left out here on this cold stark street
With the sound of lovers as they tango and meet
Their sweet surrender with a promise and a kiss
Where's that girl the one you miss

Please put a little love back into my life
Won't you please put a little love back into my life

Every shadow's like a ghost that comes and haunts you
Angel of the night plays her tricks these days, it's true
With every step, every step you see her slip away
Not just today

It's another night out on the avenue
Lookin' for somethin', somethin' that you knew

Left out here on this cold stark street
With the sound of lovers as they tango and meet
Their sweet surrender with a promise and a kiss
Where's that girl the one you miss

Please put a little love back into my life
Won't you please put a little love back into my life
Please put a little love back into my life, into my life
Won't you please put a little love back into my life

You got to, got to, got to
Please put a little love back into my life
Please put a little love back into my life


2.Doing It All For You

Lyricist:Carter Neil Andrew, Chapman Paul William, Mogg Phillip John,
Way Peter Fredrick

Lights turn red to green
I haven't been spotted or seen
Four more blocks and I'm safe
Make it clean without a chase

There's something special, certain feeling
I can't blow this one for sure
I've been nervous, anxious and edgy
This one's the last one, there'll be no more

But all I've got to do tonight
Take the car and meet the man downtown
It's easy, darling, working away
Before the word's got around

And I'll do it all for you, oh yes, I will
This time I'm coming through, oh yeah

I said, 'I'm burning, I been rolling
This car's turned up to make it fly
Don't worry, darling, just get ready
Tonight we're gonna be going out in style'

If anyone comes calling around
Don't answer 'cause you're my alibi
So just trust me, kiss me and love me
Chasing the golden mile

And I'll do it all for you, oh yes, I will
This time I'm coming through

I'll do it all for you, I will
This time I'm coming through, oh yeah
Do it all for you, yes, I will
This time I'm coming through
Coming through, coming through


3.Dreaming

Lyricist:Brown Chris John, Carter Bradley Martin, Ellis Katherine Jane
Margaret

Kids are cruisin' on the old shoreline
Goodbye-girls killin' time
Feel like soldiers, we couldn't wait
Runnin' wild, rushin' to our fate

We kept dreaming
Kids are dreaming

Sleeping rough out on Brighton's beach
A step from the law, just out of reach

We kept dreaming
Dreaming me and you

Got a plan we couldn't blow
Nobody cares, nobody knows
Made a stand and played a show
Nobody cares, nobody knows

Hiding in the wrecks of burned out cars
Found a compass on the promenade
An' gangs assemble in the old arcade
By looking cool we thought we had it made

We kept dreaming
Kids are dreaming

We ran wildly against the tide
Nothing much, just our teenage pride

We kept dreaming
Dreaming me and you

Had a plan we couldn't blow
Nobody cares, nobody knows
Made a stand and played a show
Nobody cares, nobody knows, oh yeah

Down the alleys to the old stage door
They heard the band comin' through the floor
Eric Burdon and the Animals played
In our minds the impression's made

We kept dreaming
Dreaming me and you

Had a plan we couldn't blow
Nobody cares, nobody knows
Made a stand and played a show
Nobody cares, nobody knows

Had a plan we couldn't blow
(Dreaming)
Nobody cares, nobody knows
(Dreaming me and you)
Made a stand and played a show
(Dreaming)
Nobody cares, nobody knows
(Dreaming me and you)

Had a plan we couldn't blow
(Dreaming)
Nobody cares, nobody knows
(Dreaming me and you)
Made a stand and played a show
(Dreaming)
Nobody cares, nobody knows
(Dreaming me and you)

Had a plan we couldn't blow
(Dreaming)
Nobody cares, nobody knows
(Dreaming me and you)
Made a stand and played a show
(Dreaming)
Nobody cares, nobody knows
(Dreaming me and you)

Had a plan we couldn't blow
(Dreaming)
Nobody cares, nobody knows


4.Feel It

Lyricist:Mogg Phillip John, Way Peter Fredrick

I hear the jukebox on its full playback
Her high-heeled shoes go clickity-clack
Sweet, sweet Suzy, dress way low
Does a dance just to let you know

You wanna feel it, feel it
Breaks your heart if you don't leave her alone
Feel it, feel it
It's one quick walk out in the danger zone

Ooh, it's a love that makes you burn
Ooh, well, a promise that you can keep
Ooh, every head she can, she turns
Ooh, well, that's love

The boys in Danny's bar and Grill
Swapping stories an' the old cheap thrill
But you pick up the air as she walks in
She'll never talk much or try it again

You wanna feel it, feel it
Break your heart if you don't leave her alone
Feel it, feel it
It's one quick walk out in the danger zone

Ooh, it's a love that makes you burn
Ooh, well, a promise that you can keep
Ooh, every head she can, she turns
Ooh, when you get that love to keep

Every night she'll make you dream a little more
With a smile that opens every door
In her eyes you can see the promises
One kiss tells everything

Ooh, it's a love that makes you burn
Ooh, well, a promise that you can keep
Ooh, every head she can, she turns
Ooh, well, that's love

Some girls you live with and some you need
This girl's the one, gonna make you bleed
See her strut, she moves from head to toe
What you ain't got she'll never know

You wanna feel it, feel it
Break your heart if you don't leave her alone
Feel it, feel it
It's one quick walk out in the danger zone

Ooh, it's a love that makes you burn
Ooh, well, a promise that you can keep
Ooh, every head she can, she turns
Ooh, when you get that love to keep

Ooh, it's a love that makes you burn
Ooh, well, a promise that you can keep
Ooh, every head she can, she turns
Ooh, well, that's love


5.Let It Rain

Lyricist:Carter-newton Mark, Mogg Phillip John, Way Peter Fredrick

Two lovers in a desperate game
She holds him close but their love's in vain
And the married man that you laid
Goes back home to his own charade

She puts her faith in every word he said
Tender moments in a motel bed
When you press the point he says we'll see
But then walks through your mystery

So darling, you tell me it's a wild world
You gotta take a little pain and
How long till love last
That you can never, never explain

Do you just
Let it rain, let it rain
Don't stop those tears falling again just
Let it rain, let it rain
Now you see that love's just a game

In his arms time goes so fast
But stolen love will never last
You try to keep him though you know it's wrong
This kind of love can only last so long

So darling, you tell me it's a wild world
You gotta take a little pain and
How long till love last
That you can never, never explain

Do you just
Let it rain, let it rain
Don't stop those tears falling again just
Let it rain, let it rain
Now you see that love's just a game

So darling, you tell me it's a wild world
You gotta take a little pain and
How long till love last
That you can never, never explain

Do you just
Let it rain, let it rain
Don't stop those tears falling again just
Let it rain, let it rain
Now you see that love's just a game

Let it rain, let it rain
Don't stop those tears again
You gotta
Let it rain, let it rain
Now you see that love's just a game

You gotta
Let it rain, let it rain
Don't stop those tears again
Let it rain, let it rain
Now you know that love's a game

You gotta
Let it rain, let it rain
Don't stop those tears again
You gotta
Let it rain, let it rain


6.Something Else

Look there! Here she comes
Here comes that girl again
Wanted to date her since I don't know when
She don't notice me when I pass
She goes with all the guys out of my class
That ain't stopping me from thinking to myself
She's sure fine looking she's something else

Look there, cross the street
There's a car made just for me
To own that car would be a luxury
Right now I can't afford the gas
Brand new convertible's out of my class
That ain't stopping me from thinking to myself
That car's fine looking and she's something else


Well look here wait and see
Work hard and save my dough
I bought a car at the motor show
Me and that girl we go round and round
Look real sharp with the flat top down
Keep dreaming and thinking to myself
If it comes all true she's something else

Look here what's all this
Never gone through this before
Here I am knocking on the door
Car's out front, it's all mine
It's a '49 job not a '59
I got the girl and I'm thinking to myself
She's sure fine looking she's something else


7.Terri

Lyricist:Paul William Chapman, Michael John Fiddler, Gary Lyons,
Phillip John Mogg

Terri, every time we talk we just disagree
Every chance we had is passing by
The simple things you say all drift away into the night
So don't let me know what I can't see

Terri, is it over again?
Lost in love, everybody laughing at me
With eyes like a child you smile when you hit the tide
Holding me captive for the world to see

Every now and then I'd see that wild look in your eyes
It's in all the long shots that we tried
We used to hold on tight, run for the night
How far we'd go, we couldn't see

Terri, is it over again?
Lost in love, everybody laughing at me
With eyes like a child you smile when you hit the tide
Holding me captive for the world to see

Every day goes by we get further and further away
Conversations end with nothing much to say
Maybe we've made a mistake, it's too late we'll never know
We can't change it girl 'cause I just have to go

Terri, is it over again?
Lost in love, everybody laughing at me
With eyes like a child you smile when you hit the tide
Holding me captive for the world to see

On these lonely nights I reach out for your love
This empty room feels cold and bare
Then I'll try the phone and swallow my pride
It's no good we've tried and tried

Terri, is it over again?
Lost in love, everybody laughing at me
With eyes like a child you smile when you hit the tide
Holding me captive for the world to see


8.The Writer

Lyricist:Carter Neil Andrew, Chapman Paul William, Mogg Phillip John

I'm the writer got a front page cover
Hot gossip 'bout who's with their latest lover
I write all chapters by the second scene
I call the shots, don't need a Fleet Street team

I am a writer and I'm the news
You cross me you know, you're gonna lose

I'll do the story if you're dead or alive
If seconds out or if you're gonna take a dive
Slip out the news or a piece of scandal
Don't toe the line, 'cause nothing's too hot to handle

I am a writer and I'm the news
If you cross me you know, you're gonna lose
Yeah, you're gonna lose

I am a writer and I am the news
If you cross me you know, you're gonna lose

And where you are it's because of me
'Cause overnight you know it don't come free
I'll put you up there or I'll bring you down
'Cause nothing moves without me in this town

I am a writer and I am the news
You cross me you know, you're gonna lose
Boy, you're gonna lose
I said, you're gonna lose

I write the news I am the news
Got to, got to got to lose
Oh yeah, you're gonna lose
So don't step on my blue suede shoes
You're gonna lose


9.We Belong To The Night

Lyricist:Carter Neil Andrew, Fiddler Michael John, Mogg Phillip John,
Way Peter Fredrick

Ruby darling's got a crazy walk
The boys love her with that dirty, dirty talk
Singles bar with the broken light
Just a easy touch, a lady of the night

Ruby darling, I need you
Cross my heart and promise to be true

And you tell me that you can't change
Your life's been set, prearranged
Hold on tight 'til the morning light
'Cause we belong to the night

Well-known face in every door
Street kids come and tryna make the score
Patrol car stopped, talk for a while
But they let you go with a warning and a smile

Ruby darling, I need you
Cross my heart and promise to be true

And you tell me that you can't change
Your life's been set, prearranged
Hold on tight 'til the morning light
'Cause we belong to the night

And you tell me that you can't change
Your life's been set, prearranged
Hold on tight 'til the morning light
'Cause we belong to the night

Life goes on down the streets
Contacts made where the gay boys come to meet
Keep saying it's your last night
Give up this life for me without a fight

Ruby darling, I need you
Cross my heart and promise to be true

And you tell me that you can't change
Your life's been set, prearranged
Hold on tight 'til the morning light
'Cause we belong to the night

And you tell me that you can't change
Your life's been set, prearranged
Hold on tight 'til the morning light
'Cause we belong to the night


10.You'll Get Love

Lyricist:Neil Andrew Carter, Paul William Chapman, Phillip John Mogg

I heard you tiptoe in last night
Cross the porch stars were bright
Past my room and into yours
Sliding locks and chaining doors

You'll get love
My kind of love
You'll get love
The love you give to me

I see the men that come and go
Through a hole that doesn't show
Every day we pass in the hall
I'm like a picture on the wall

You'll get love
My kind of love
You'll get love
The love you give to me, yeah

I hear your giggles and little sighs
Close my eyes and fantasize
But as you're sleeping a room away
In the dark you hear the jackal play

You'll get love
My kind of love
You'll get love
The love you give to me

You'll get love
My kind of love
I'll get love
The love you give to me
