Ordinary Lives

There'll be one small light

all over the world tonight.

The search go on for the one,

it was love with no name

and we glowed in the sun.

There was one small dream

incredible highs and lows,

what little we knew living ordinary lives.

Made a dream for you, living ordinary lives.

 

Spoken: Ordinary people living ordinary lives.

Ordinary people living ordinary lives.

 

We were be one small light

all over the world tonight.

The search go on for the one,

it was love with no name

and we glowed in the sun.

There was one small dream

incredible highs and lows,

what little we knew living ordinary lives.

Made a dream for you, living ordinary lives.

 

We were ordinary people living ordinary lives.

We were ordinary people living ordinary lives.

 

Spoken: The clock on the wall keeps moving,

time stands still,

no matter how the dice may fall,

someone else always gets to call the number.

 

Say goodbye cruel world

No pity no pain tonight

Whatever the cost all is lost

If this is love with no name

Then it's all in the stars

Whether it's wrong or right

There's no one to blame no lies

What else could we do

Living ordinary lives

Made a dream for you

Living ordinary lives.

 

 

One

I feel my heartbeat,

when you run your fingers through my hair.

(Yeah) I can feel you,

I can feel you by my side when you're not there.

(Yeah) Just as my life fades to darkness

you you make me see the light.

Show me that my search is over

I pay the price, I pay the price.

 

Tell you someday Baby, you and I should be one, one.

Do it always, brighter than the eye can see, we hide the sun.

 

The taste of love is sweeter like honey on the vine,

like the wind that feeds the fire, two souls become entwined.

Someday baby you and I should be one, one.

 

VERSE 2:

So I'm standing 'round this corner

Tall enough to touch the New York sky, oh yes

My love is so blind

I just cannot hear or see the world go by, oh yes

Someone can love so completely

One kiss should break the sea.

Truth can be stranger than fiction

This love is real

This love is real.

 

Tell you someday Baby, you and I should be one, one.

Do it always, brighter than the eye can see, we hide the sun.

 

Ah we are one, we are one.

 

VERSE 3:

I will follow

Count on me, I'll never let you down, oh yes

My devotion

If love is an ocean I'll surely drown, oh yes

You'll be my only possession

I'll be a slave to you

We hold the power together

Just me and you

Just me and you.

 

Tell you someday Baby, you and I should be one, one.

Do it always, brighter than the eye can see, we hide the sun.

Tell you someday Baby, you and I should be one, one.

 

[You know my life is in your hands,

and every breath you take is planned

and all this love goes on forever.]

 

Tell you someday Baby, you and I should be one, one.

Do it someday Baby, you and I should be one, one.

Do it someday Baby, you and I should be one, one.... (Repeat to Fade)

 

 

Bodyguard

It hurts me when you cry

when you feel the love is gone.

Don't give up on us when you got so much to believe in.

And so I beg you please stay yeah.

Danger in the night,

a flame that never dies

in a world of lonely faces

you need someone to survive,

a love like yours should never live alone.

 

Let me be your bodyguard, (I can be useful to you)

we can just get excited, stop before we go too far.

Let me be your bodyguard. (Living in my protection)

we can just get ignited, lost inside

it's only you and me.

 

VERSE 2:

There's things you shouldn't do

You lose your self-control

Should the eyes of a perfect stranger

Take you down to a new sensation

Just turn back to me

Don't wait till it's gone

Don't go where you don't belong

In a world of pain and sorrow

Every wish is your command

A heart like yours

Should always find a home.

 

I know the signs and I'm telling you you're living on borrowed time,

but a heart needs love like a flower needs rain,

like I'm making you mine.

 

Let me be your bodyguard, (I can be useful to you)

we can just get excited, stop before we go too far.

Let me be your bodyguard. (Living in my protection)

we can just get ignited,

what we had never known all our lives,

I pray it's not too late,

I would die by your side my love

I'm the life that you save.

 

In this world of pain and sorrow

every wish is your command,

a heart like yours should never live alone.

 

I used to dream of a special one

and now I feel it's coming true,

but I couldn't let go, I'm a jealous guy

what you're putting me through.

 

Let me be your bodyguard, (I can be useful to you)

we can just get excited, stop before we go too far.

Let me be your bodyguard. (Living in my protection)

we can just get ignited, stop before we go too far.

 

Let me be your bodyguard, (I can be useful to you)

we can just get excited, stop before we go too far.

Let me be your bodyguard. (Living in my protection)

we can just get ignited,

Let me be your bodyguard, (I can be useful to you)

we can just get excited, stop before we go too far.

 

 

It's My Neighborhood

Don't get too close to me,

don't overreact,

you're not the enemy as a matter of fact,

you got your pretty face and you got any name you wore

gonna stick by you, gonna stumble over what to do.

 

I want it, good lovin' wanna be your plaything.

I want it, good lovin' bring out the beast in me.

I want it, good lovin' wanna make your heart sing,

in the shadows we are free, and I walk you through it.

 

It's my neighborhood,

that's where I belong.

You're in trouble if you

disagree with me.

It's my neighborhood,

that's where I belong,

you find out why.

 

It's my neighborhood,

that's where I belong.

You're in trouble if you

disagree with me.

It's my neighborhood,

that's where I belong,

you find out why.

 

VERSE 2:

So many tell you that you can't win

It's a battle if you're lonely

Or if you're starting over

Two-fisted and fast on your feet

And you know there's something more

And the city kicks it out of you and...

 

I want it, good lovin' wanna be your plaything.

I want it, good lovin' bring out the worst in me.

I want it, good lovin' wanna make your heart sing,

in the shadows we are free, and I walk you through it.

 

It's my neighborhood,

that's where I belong.

You're in trouble if you

disagree with me.

It's my neighborhood,

that's where I belong,

you find out why.

 

 

Tears

I started out to be the man behind the scenes

Knowing I was in above my head

For all that I could see

I never saw the truth

Now I'm alone

Heaven only knows how much I'm missing you

Knowing I had heaven in my hands

And there will be tears

Tears are mixed with rain

Keeper of my flame

Time and tide is on my side, it stands forever

There will be nights of love and yes there will be tears

 

I will not sleep tonight

There will be tears tonight

I will not sleep tonight

There will be tears

 

The silent telephone, the turning of the key

You're still inside of me , I'm not ashamed

For all that I can do , I can't forget your face

I call your name

Heaven only knows what I've been crying for , what I'm crying for

And all I've done to keep this love alive

Even through my tears

Tears are mixed with rain

Keeper of my flame

I will pray you're on my side, we stand forever

There will be nights of love and yes there will be tears

 

I will not sleep tonight

There will be tears tonight

I will not sleep tonight

There will be tears

 

(break)

 

Soon there will be tears rollin' down my world

Keeper of my flame

Time and tide is on my side, it stands forever

There will be nights of love and yes there will be tears

 

I will not sleep tonight. There will be tears tonight

I will not sleep tonight. There will be tears

I will not sleep tonight. There will be tears tonight

I will not sleep tonight. There will be tears

 

(repeat last 2 lines and fade out )

 

 

Tokyo Nights

VERSE 1:

You're crossing the water

for eastern delights,

'cause now that you're gone

I feel like a stranger in New York tonight.

 

And the rhythm was new to me,

Tokyo nights

well she came in the night,

and she came in the night.

And the vision was true to me,

Tokyo nights.

Well she came for the moment

and stayed till the end wee ah.

 

Take me to Tokyo.

ooh wee ah.

Take me to Tokyo.

 

VERSE 2:

I was lonely in western days

Tokyo nights

Well she took me away, by saving life

I was down in the rising sun

Tokyo night

Well I came for the moment, and

Stayed till the end. (ooh)

 

Take me to Tokyo.

ooh wee ah.

Take me to Tokyo.

 

Repeat VERSE 1.

 

I am calling you,

Take me to Tokyo,

ooh wee ah.

Take me to Tokyo.

ooh wee ah.

 

(Repeat to Fade)

 

 

Flesh and Blood

I'm not that someone who's got what you want

I can do nothing but watch what you do

You just want someone to kiss you good night

But lips are never enough to get you through

You stole my nights and you got your way

Now you got me dying inside , oh baby

 

Ebony don't walk out on me

Listen to what I say

Pick up the pieces of my life into the night of day

How do you break this heart of steel

Nobody ever could

Open the pages of my life

I'm only flesh and blood

 

I'll be your Savior but baby I swear

I'm not living my life over you

Some satisfaction you get if you dare

But is it ever enough to get you through

You stole my mind and you watch me fall

Now you leave the scene of the crime,oh no

 

Ebony don't walk out on me

I never thought you could

I'm only what you make of me

I'm only flesh and blood

I'm only flesh and blood

 

When you're gone , you'll be leaving behind,

a broken man with something to hide

Oh, lost in the night in a town without pity

You learn how to cry. You learn how to cry

 

(break)

 

Ebony don't walk out on me

Listen to what I say

Pick up the pieces of my life into the night of day

How do you break this heart of steel

Nobody ever could

Open the pages of my life

I'm only flesh and blood

 

Gone are the days that came and went

Houses are made of wood

Live in a world of sand and stone

I'm only flesh and blood

 

Ebony don't walk out on me

I never thought you could

I'm only what you make of me

I'm only flesh and blood

 

   

Wish You Were Here

You're living your life

in somebody else's heart

My love is as strong

as oceans are far apart.

 

A summer song keeps playing in my brain,

and I feel you, and I see your face again,

there's no escape,

I lost everything in losing you.

 

Ah I wish you were here,

drying these tears I cry

They were good times,

and I wish you were here

and calling my name,

but you're dealing with a man insane, the cost,

how hopelessly I'm lost,

I tried to throw our love away

and I can't let go.

 

VERSE 2:

And so I awake

In somebody else's dream

(It's not what it seems)

it's only a lie

I've yet to decide who's real.

 

The blood red rose will never never die

It'll burn like a flame

In the dark of the night

I'm not afraid

I'd give everything

If you hear me there.

 

Chorus 2:

 

Ahh I wish you were here,

drying these tears I cry

They were good times,

it's that time of year

for being alone

but you're dealing with a heart of stone

try to kiss and say goodbye

try to throw our love away

And that storm will blow.

 

Wish you were here.

Wish you were here,

'Cause you're dealing with a heart of stone

try to kiss and say goodbye

try to throw our love away

And I can't let go.

 

They were good times

and I wish you were here,

yes, I wish you were here.

 

Repeat to Fade.

 

   

House of Shame

First you say you needed me,

then you give me sympathy,

they say good girls never win,

something good in giving in

how do I get through to you?

You must be made of stone.

 

VERSE 2:

Just when I was safe and sound

Love you built a wall around

You take a hard line attitude

Time to send me back to school

Or take me, take me to your

house of shame,

easy on your body when you got no name.

 

Hold me like you know me,

I'm a falling star,

catch me if you can,

show me the way inside.

 

VERSE 3:

You can knock on any door

I know what I'm looking for

Red light, hit and run

Time to turn the engine on

Pretty girl lives all alone

I must be goin' home.

 

VERSE 4:

Hot as hell and cold as ice

Everything I sacrifice

I got to pick up on what you do

I just can't get over you

You take me, take me to your

house of shame,

easy on your body when you got no name.

 

Hold me like you know me,

I'm a falling star,

catch me if you can,

show me the way inside.

 

Tell me what you really want from life,

loving you darling,

you got me infatuated,

good love is not for sale,

I nearly gave myself away.

 

Pretty girl lives all alone,

take me to your, take me to your

house of shame,

easy on your body when you got no name.

 

Hold me like you know me,

I'm a falling star,

catch me if you can,

show me the way inside.

 

House of Shame

Easy on the body when you've got no name

 

Hold me like you know me

I'm a falling star

Catch me if you can

Show me the way inside

 

(repeat last verse 2 times and fade out)

 

 

Will You Ever Let Me

I've come to feel that you're a blessing in disguise,

find a way of making sure.

Is what you show to me the devil in your eyes,

are you the killer or the cure.

 

I could be the fire you start

at just the mention of your name.

I rise and I rise up to heaven my love,

and let you shoot me down in flames

you don't take me serious,

too insane to see you're just too good to be true,

and I don't sympathise with those

who crawl home to you.

 

Your head is on the line, you find no other love

and I would go through hell for you,

tell me will you ever let me in.

Tell me, will you ever let me in?

 

VERSE 2:

Maybe the trick is to be

Taken by surprise

And lady be wise, beware

The way to make you make that

Final sacrifice

The dream is real for those who dare.

 

I will redefine your life

We remember till we die

When love is in motion who needs

More than this

And soon we know what passion is

All is fair in love and war

It's what I'm fighting for, but you're just too good

to be true,

and I don't sympathise with those

who crawl home to you.

 

Your head is on the line, you find no other love

and I would go through hell for you,

tell me will you ever let me in.

Tell me, will you ever let me in?

 

I will be the fire you start

at just the mention of your name.

All is fair in love and war,

you know what I'm fighting for,

love has shot me serious,

right between the eyes,

you're just too good

to be true,

and I don't sympathise with those

who crawl home to you.

 

Your head is on the line, you find no other love

and I would go through hell for you,

tell me will you ever let me in.

Tell me, will you ever let me in?

 

Tell me will you ever let me in

Tell me will you ever let me ...

  

 

Wing And a Prayer

Lovers in ancient times

 

Now it begins -- I see it in your eyes

And I know how you feel -- you long to touch the sky

The flame of life, let it eat your heart out every night

But you're not alone

 

This is your world -- this is your world

 

Lovers in ancient time, caught in the fire

Only the strong survive -- how can we face tomorrow

Live an illusion, don't let it fade and die

Something deep inside you, a wing and a prayer will guide you

Something deep inside you

Something deep inside you, a wing and a prayer will guide you

Something deep inside you

 

{Spoken}

Go now, girl, don't look back. This is your one big chance.

I place my fingers to your lips and I tell you my love flies with you

On a wing and a prayer, on a wing and a prayer

 

No muscle and bone -- rhythm is the key

There's everything to play for -- you're everything to me

The game of life -- win it and your love comes tumbling down

You'll never be alone

This is your world -- this is your world

 

This is your world -- this is your world

 

Lovers in ancient time, caught in the fire

Only the strong survive -- how can we face tomorrow

Live an illusion, don't let it fade and die

Something deep inside you, a wing and a prayer will guide you

Something deep inside you

Something deep inside you, a wing and a prayer will guide you

Something deep inside you

 

Something deep inside you, a wing and a prayer will guide you

Something deep inside you

 

Repeat to fade
