Ufo Misdemeanor Lyrics
1.Blue

Lyricist:Paul Gray, Phillip John Mogg

It's another night stuck in here with the TV on
As John Wayne holds the Alamo
I'm wonderin' where you've gone
I just sit and wait, hope it's not too late
Say there's something left to prove it to you

Outside this house nothing's changed
Our street looks just the same
The things you left I'll keep that way
Till we're together again
When I just start to slip, yes, l lose my grip
I can't believe you're gone, it's really true

Blue, blue, oh baby, where are you
Blue, blue, tell me know, it's not true

There's nothing romantic in a tear-drawn goodbye
Oh baby, say it's a lie
Panic sets in, I'm an irrational man
If I can't have you nobody can

Blue, blue, oh baby, where are you
Blue, blue, tell me know, it's not true

Last night, I heard you talkin'
Oh so close, whispering in my ear
All night, till the morning
I kept wishing I could feel you near

When we stood naked at the 4th of July
Moon shot took off, lit up the sky
The Red Sea was parting for the second time
The world at my feet, you were mine, it was

Lovin' you was so easy, baby
Holdin' on when our luck was down
Sweetest thing that I ever, ever heard was
I'll always, always be around

Blue, blue, oh baby, where are you
Blue, blue, gettin' desperate, desperate for you


2.Dream The Dream

Lyricist:Phillip John Mogg, Paul Raymond

Mama they say the snow this winter
Beat you to the ground
But I'm a long time gone, long time gone
Wish I could see the blazin' sunset
Falling right into the bay
But I'm a long time gone, long time gone

To dream the dream that's over
To live and love again, oh my America
And to be where my footsteps lead me over
To be born again tonight

I want to be there on our back porch
Looking on down the road
But I'm a long time gone, long time gone
The troubles here, they pass me by
I want to get home to you
But I'm a long time gone, long time gone

To dream the dream that's over
To live and love again, oh my America
And to be where my footsteps lead me over
To be born again tonight

Lonely days, lonely nights
Caught up in someone else's fight
I'm holdin' on and you're so strong
All I want to be is just holdin' you tonight

To dream the dream that's over
To live and love again, oh my America
And to be where my footsteps lead me over
To be born again tonight

To dream the dream that's over
To live and love again, oh my America
And to be where my footsteps lead me over
To be born again tonight


3.Heaven's Gate

Lyricist:Tommy Mcclendon, Phillip John Mogg

As midnight draws its steely shades
And the Boystown girls go on parade
My tattoo, she's a kiss away
In the Creole town it's another day

Tears of rage and tears of pain
We're two lovers called 'em different ways
No redemption, no remorse
But this love drives a deadly course

I can't wait for you
Heaven's gate won't wait
I can't wait for you
'Cause heaven's gate won't wait

So hold me close, don't let go
With one last kiss, we'll never know
What should have, could have, might have been
We're just chasin' one more dream

I can hear the Mardi Gras
From my hotel window it seems too far
As daylight creeps through the shades
I can see the price we paid

I can't wait for you
Heaven's gate won't wait
I can't wait for you
'Cause heaven's gate won't wait

I can't wait for you
Heaven's gate won't wait
I can't wait for you
'Cause heaven's gate won't wait

I can't wait for you
Heaven's gate won't wait
I can't wait for you
'Cause heaven's gate won't wait


4.Meanstreets

There's a heartbeat in the city
Caught in the rush there's no pity
On the edge of day
Late night traffic, late to go home
I'm slippin out into the twilight zone
I'm on the edge of day

* In a stolen moment two lovers meet
Whisperin' promises they can't keep
Across the bar jukebox plays
Out in the night they steal away

** Out on the meanstreets, feel my heartbeat
Each and every step I take
Out on the meanstreets, feel my heartbeat
It's in every move I make

With all the heat now, and all the stories
Heroes wrestle for the chance of glory
On the edge of day
Midnight cowboys make the sweep
There's nothing sacred on the street
We're on the edge again

* Repeat
** Repeat

When the lights go down you know life comes easy
It's easy baby
In the wild West End you can find
A friend tonight
Oh tonight
Got to keep this heart. inspired


* Repeat
** Repeat twice then the instruments wrap it up


5.Name Of Love

Lyricist:Tommy Mcclendon, Phillip John Mogg

Living in a one-room
If I don't fall in love soon
Hangin' on the telephone
If I don't get your call soon

Every night I spend alone
I've never been so low
And this room is closing in
If I die who will know

In the name of love
Is there someone left for me?
In the name of love
Set this heart free

Dreaming of a playmate
If I don't fall in love soon
Strangers on a dark night
But it's all over too soon

Every night I spend alone
I've never been so low
And this room is closing in
If I die who will know

In the name of love
Is there someone left for me?
In the name of love
Set this heart free

In the name of love
Is there someone left for me
In the name of love
Set this heart free

In the name of love
Is there someone left for me
In the name of love
Set this heart free

In the name of love
Is there someone left for me
In the name of love
Set this heart free


6.Night Run

Lyricist:Phil Gray, Tommy Mcclendon, Phillip John Mogg

Love me tender, love me true
Ooh baby, what a song could do
We were sharp like needles in the dark
No question mark

My friend Billy was one of a kind
Growin' up and runnin' wild
We could take a sunset and make it real
We stood together on the edge of a knife

And we have seen the night run
It's a thousand miles away
Yes, we have seen the night run
It passed us by in just one day

Used to say, well, it's me and you
Ooh, we could make dreams come true
And we put some magic in this night
Oh, feels so right

Came across your photograph
Everything was just a laugh
Where do you go when you reach the end?
Into the night, we would explode
With hand on my heart, rules of the road

And we have seen the night run
It's a thousand miles away
Yes, we have seen the night run
It passed us by in just one day

And we have seen the night run
It's a thousand miles away
Yes, we have seen the night run
It passed us by in just one day

Big city lights they fade then they go
(Along with your sense of humor, no)
Some people give up and lose the fight
We could prove it night after, night after

And we have seen the night run
It's a thousand miles away
Yes, we have seen the night run
It passed us by in just one day

And we have seen the night run
It's a thousand miles away
Yes, we have seen the night run
It passed us by in just one day

And we have seen the night run
It's a thousand miles away
Yes, we have seen the night run
It passed us by in just one day

7.One Heart

Lyricist:Percy Greenbank, Tommy Mcclendon, Phillip John Mogg

The elevator it goes right to the 21st floor
He's steppin' out and she walks right through the President's
door
In this world you know, you're just a fool to take
He'll give you something adds up to nothing
It's your heart that breaks

One heart stands alone
Stripped right down to the bone
One heart easy to break
(How much more can you take?)
(Tell me now that this is just a mistake)

He sits up there like a king, oh, in the company chair
He'll cast you right but you know, it's just so unfair
So you're one more number now in his telephone book
It shows nothing
You've got something from the pleasure he took

One heart stands alone
Stripped right down to the bone
One heart easy to break
(How much more can you take?)
(Tell me now that this is just a mistake)

One heart stands alone
Stripped right down to the bone
One heart easy to break
(How much more can you take?)
(Tell me now that this is just a mistake)

So you think, you're found it
Your one big break got what it takes
And you're tough enough to spot all those fakes
Your first mistake

But you've got something that survives
A burnin' heart stays alive
And now I wish you could do with me
Oh baby, you just couldn't see

He'll give you your something
Adds up to nothing and your heart breaks

One heart stands alone
Stripped right down to the bone
One heart easy to break
(How much more can you take?)
(Tell me now that this is just a mistake)

One heart stands alone
Stripped right down to the bone
One heart easy to break
(How much more can you take?)
(Tell me now that this is just a mistake)

One heart stands alone
Stripped right down to the bone
One heart easy to break
(How much more can you take?)
(Tell me now that this is just a mistake)

8.The Only Ones

Lyricist:Percy Greenbank, Phillip John Mogg

Can you feel me, I'm so close, I'm sure?
Anytime if you would call be right to your door
Is it over, lost this time for good?
I never knew that I could be so misunderstood

We are the only ones, left alone with this heart of stone
We are the only ones with nothin' left but fools alone

Life's so empty, there's nothin' left for me
Oh, I wish you were back, baby you and me
Last September, it's like yesterday
You slipped through my hands, there's nothing more to say

We are the only ones, left alone with this heart of stone
We are the only ones with nothin' left but fools alone

I can feel the magic in your heart tonight
I thought we had something, oh, so right
Baby, tell me do you still care
'Cause this ain't no game of kiss and dare

We are the only ones, left alone with this heart of stone
We are the only ones with nothin' left but fools alone

We are the only ones, left alone with this heart of stone
We are the only ones with nothin' left but fools alone


9.This Time

Lyricist:Gray Paul Murray Granville, Mogg Phillip John

Maybe tomorrow, maybe next week
Oh baby, the future looks bleak
I can't believe what's been goin' on
You're never there, you're always gone

A little faith goin' a long way
Diggin' for gold
Movin' on, I'm out in the cold

No, no baby, I believed in you
No, no baby, it's not true
No, no baby, I believed in you
Don't put my heart on the line

This time, let it be me
I'll be the one that you can see
This time I'll be your man
I'm right here baby, here in your hand

Situation is the classic kind
Caught in this trap, oh love is blind
Friends keep saying that you're bad news
I keep saying how could you choose

Just to believe you are mine
At the point of no return
A fool in love, when will I learn

No, no baby, I believed in you
No, no baby, it's not true
No, no baby, I believed in you
Don't put my heart on the line

This time, let it be me
I'll be the one that you can see
This time I'll be your man
I'm right here baby, here in your hand

This time, let it be me
I'll be the one that you can see
This time I'll be your man
I'm right here baby, here in your hand

There's no sign that this love of ours
Will go on and on
I took a long look at love
From the point of view there's an Angel above

This time, let it be me
I'll be the one that you can see
This time I'll be your man
I'm right here baby, here in your hand

There's no sign that this love of ours will go on and on

This time, let it be me
I'll be the one that you can see
This time I'll be your man
I'm right here baby, here in your hand

This time, let it be me
I'll be the one that you can see
This time I'll be your man
I'm right here baby, here in your hand


10.Wreckless

Lyricist:Tommy Mcclendon, Phillip John Mogg

So this is it, have we come to the end
No more fun, oh my friend
But I'll take my chances now
Lettin' loose again

Wreckless weekends, weekends
Led by my heart, not my head
Tearing this whole world apart

I found something no one steals
It's love of life, it's so real
And I know it's hard for you
But here I go again

Wreckless weekends, weekends
Led by my heart, not my head
Tearing this whole world apart
Bringing me down when it starts

And if it's a lifetime term
Babe, I guess I'll never learn
Got to make a stand right here tonight

Got the fever right to my feet
Kicking my heels and I'm coming on heat
Tonight's the night we make it real
Oh baby, it's a steal

It's no good tomorrow, it's too far away
I'm keeping my hand in, you gotta stay
There's no time for makeup, just put on your shoes
You know we've got nothing to lose

Wreckless, born for a wild weekend
Wreckless, pushing it 'til the end

I'm tired of Houston, it sticks in my throat
I'm gonna swim , not gonna float
So break these chains and let me loose
'Cuz if I can't win, I'm gonna choose

It's no good tomorrow, it's too far away
I'm keeping my hand in, you gotta stay
There's no time for makeup, just put on your shoes
You know we've got nothing to lose

Wreckless, born for a wild weekend
Wreckless, pushing it 'til the end

And I can't stand one more lonely night
Without a love that's got no fight
Oh baby , let me know
C'mon sugar, let it show
One more time, we will know
I gotta keep you, can't let you go

And I can't stand one more lonely night
Without a love that's got no fight
Oh baby , let me know
C'mon sugar, let it show
One more time, we will know
I gotta keep you, can't let you go

Wreckless, born for a wild weekend
Wreckless, pushing it 'til the end

Wreckless, born for a wild weekend
Wreckless, pushing it 'til the end
