1.Paths And Angles
Lyricist:Christopher Thomas Allen, Warren Reginald Cann, William
Currie, Midge Ure
Visions of men never known
Never seen, never heard, never shown
Characters lying in waits, responsible figures of fate
With memories and faces as long as their hate
Paths and the angles of light
Find their way into my eye
Recorded and logged for a time
Some living, some loving, some dying
There are factors rearranged every time
The phrases, the angles, so fine
Sunken valleys and decades of crime
Distant seasons, a smile that was quoted as mine
Paths and the angles of light
Find their way into my eye
Recorded and logged for a time
Some living, some loving, some dying
Paths and the angles of light
Find their way into my eye
Recorded and logged for a time
Some living, some loving, some dying
Paths and the angles of light
Find their way into my eye
Recorded and logged for a time
Some living, some loving, some dying
Paths and the angles of light
Find their way into my eye
Recorded and logged for a time
Some living, some loving, some dying
2.Face To Face
Lyricist:Allen Christopher Thomas, Cann Warren Reginald, Currie
William Lee, Ure Midge
There's nothing left
The system's gone
It's taking over, over, over
Right before our eyes
It's all over
Hear them cry
It's all over
Hear them sigh
It's all over
Nothing but time, time, time is all we had
Face to face
Room to room
It's taking over
The streets are bare
There's nothing there
It's all gone now, gone now, gone now
Right before our eyes
It's all over
Hear them cry
It's all over
See them die
It's all over
Nothing but time, time, time is all I had
Face to face
Room to room
It's taking over
It's all over
Hear them cry
It's all over
Hear them die
It's all over
Nothing but time, time, time is all we had
Face to face
Room to room
We're taking over, oh
3.If I Was
If I was a soldier
Captive arms I'd lay before her
If I was a sailor
Seven oceans I'd sail to her
If I was a wiser man
Would other men reach out and touch me?
If I was a kinder man
Dishing up love for a hungry world
Tell me would that appease her?
I want to please her again
If I was a painter
I'd paint a world that couldn't taint her
If I was a leader
On food of love from above I would feed her
If I was a poet
All my love and burning words I would show it
If I was her lover
Her eyes in kisses I would cover
Come here my baby
Oh, they can't touch you now
I'll keep you save and warm
I'll never leave you at all
Come here my baby
Oh they won't touch you
Dishing up love for a hungry world
Tell me would that appease you
I want to please you again
If I was a soldier
Captive arms I'd lay before her
If I was a sailor
Seven oceans I'd sail to her
If I was a painter
I'd paint a world that couldn't taint her
If I was a leader
On food of love from above I would feed her
If I was a poet
All my love and burning words I would show it
If I was her lover
Her eyes in kisses I would cover
4.Live Again
Time will find a way
A way to make your world go round
Present an empty day
A canvas for your words
To paint the things you see
A chapter still to come
Don't you know that every
picture holds a story
Don't you know you'll
learn to live again
Soon to find your
road to everything
Don't you know you'll
learn to live again
I've seen it all before
The emptiness and empty heart
Bewildered and unsure
One moment and it's gone
Release and set you free
To cast away your ties
To radiate and shine to
light your path to glory
Don't you know you'll
learn to live again
Soon to find your
road to everything
Don't you know you'll
learn to live again
Time will ind a way
I've seen it all before
Don't you know you'll
learn to live again
Soon to find your
road to everything
Don't you know you'll
learn to live again
5.The Change
i am the road i walk alone
exposed and turned to stone
a heart without a home
walk for miles to walk away
a new life every day
to welcome come what may
turn around and make the change
turn it round and love will hapen
you took a lifetime to find
the change
i am the wall i built along
the line that i have drawn
so cold and dark and strong
resistant to all love and hate
so tragic and so great
no heart to penetrate
turn around and make the change
turn it round and love will hapen
you took a lifetime to find
the change
leave you standing on my shore
to watch this ocean roar
a sea you can't cross over
a racing tide to wash away
the gift of better days
with words that you might say
turn around and make the change
turn around and make the change
turn it round and love will hapen
you took a lifetime to find
the warmth, the love the change
6.This One
It's hard to believe the time is come
For this one
For this one
Good fortune has breathed its breath upon
This one
This one
A handful of wanting, waitnig my turn
A mountain of past, a future to burn
A dream of tomorrows,
and what will become, become
With hope upon hope and blind desire
Empty horizons fuel my fire
Waitnig for something
From lifes great liar
It's hard to believe the time has come
For this one
For this one
Good fortune has breathed its breath upon
This one
For this one
It's hard to believe the time has come
For this one
Binding my time till my time is due
Waiting in line as world looks through me
Right through
It's hard to believe the time has come
For this one
For this one
Good fortune has breathed its breath upon
This one
For this one
It's hard to believe the time has come
For this one, for this one
Good fortune has breathed its breath upon
This one
For this one
It's hard to believe the time has come
7.Let It Lie
couldn't you let it lie?
with a smile and subterfuge
you dances your savage dance
some hidden cause you cannot justyfy
a lie's a lie
couldn't you let it lie
couldn't you let it lie
conscience clear and sanctified
you wash yooursins away
in god's name you start your holy war
who's it for?
couldn't you let it lie?
couldn't you let it lie?
couldn't you let it lie?
couldn't you let it lie?
couldn't you let it lie?
