Hideaway
Ive been watching how you dance
Watching how you smile
Watching how you carry yourself around in a crowd
And watching what you say
Youve got something thats a secret to the average eye
Youve been saving something nobodys seen until now
In a hideaway
Im not trying to invade your privacy
There are things you have a right to hide
But its oh so cold
Standing on the outside
Will you take me to your secret hideaway
I wont tell nobody where Im going
Wont you tell me that were leaving right away
For the heart of your hideaway
Everybodys looking for a heaven on earth
A slice of paradise where nobody gets hurt
Someone to put the pieces back together again
When your daydreams die
Are you trying to get a message through the air to me?
Get me on your wavelength and tell me which way to go
To your hideaway
I cant stand another second in this tinker-toy world
Give me your direction
Dont make me wait anymore
It seems so far away
You can trust me with your secret fantasy
You will never know until youve tried
But its oh so cold
Standing on the outside
Ive been trying to get a message
Through the air to you
Get on my wavelength
And Ill tell you which way to go
To my hideaway
I will show you to my secret hideaway
We will tell nobody where were going

A live unbeaten earth
So thats where Im going

Where the sun is gold and life exists

Raped by big industry
Well just have to wing it
The concrete strips raw greed and king tv
They say so what I say so this

When I hear children voices my feelings arent so hard
Your honest face
Your quiet simple grace
You are one thing
I will not waste

(I Wish I Could) Hideaway
Howdy, friend, begging your pardon,
Is there something on your mind?
You've gone and sold all your belongings,
Is that something in your eye?
Well, I know you really never
Liked the way it all goes down;
Go on, Hideaway.
What's that you say?
We're all bound for the graveyard;
Oooh, I wish you well.
Think it's gonna rain,
Oh, what's the diff'rence,
Is there some way I can help?
'Cause you know, I'm gonna miss you
When you're gone, oh, Lord,
Wish I Could Hideaway
Hold on, give yourself a chance,
I can hear the leaving train.
All aboard! Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye!
Oooh, I wish you well.
See you soon, maybe tomorrow.
You can never tell;
"Cause you know, I'm gonna miss you
When you're gone, oh,
Wish I could Hideaway

(A Place To) Hideaway
I've got to find a place to hideaway
Far from the shadows of my mind
Sunlight and laughter, love ever after
For how I long to find a place to hideaway
I hear you whisper and I must obey,
Blindly follow where you'll be
Knowing tomorrow brings only sorrow
Where can I go to find a place to hideaway
Bright colored pinwheels go round in my head
I run through the mist of the wine
(*) The night and the music remind me instead
The world once was mine
I'll save my pennies for a rainy day
But where can I buy another you?
Dreams are for sleeping
Love is for weeping
Oh, how I long to find a place to hideaway
Repeat (*)

Hideaway
You know I gotta go
Got to find a place
Get away
From the human race
Find a place where the air is clear
On a sunny day, sunny day
I got to find
A hideaway, hideaway
Hideaway

Hideaway
You know I gotta leave
Got to find a place, any place
Get away
From the city pace, city pace
I gotta go out where the air is fresh and clear

The Runaway
So many things that you could say or do
Dont wanna say goodbye
So many nights that I would cry for you
But you were cold as ice
Now Im searching for
Someone I can be sure of
Sacrifice the only one that I need
No hideaway for the runaway
Every creature of love had excited me
Someone is breaking your heart (heart) (heart)
So tomorrow Ill tell you that Im sorry
And its too late to worry if
Someone is breaking your heart (heart) (heart)
Just an echo of a distant dream
That slowly disappears in the
Magic of the ecstasy
That flows between the tears
Then before my eyes the crystal was broken
I swallowed every promise you made
No hideaway for the runaway
Every creature of love had excited me
Someone is breaking your heart (heart) (heart)
So tomorrow Ill tell you that Im sorry
And its too late to worry if
Someone is breaking your heart (heart) (heart)
Moonlight is cruel as the light
And the future is only a lie
Oh, baby
Birds of a feather will fly
Im alone in the night
No hideaway for the runaway
Every creature of love had excited me
Someone is breaking your heart (heart) (heart)
So tomorrow Ill tell you that Im sorry
And its too late to worry if
Someone is breaking your heart (heart) (heart)
So tomorrow Ill tell you that Im sorry (fade)

Voice On My Tv
Its a familiar voice
Sometimes I wonder
If I have a choice
You give it everything
Youre selling god
But am I listening
I hear youve seen the light
Your message comes to me
By satellite
You say I must believe
I say its just another way
To deceive
If my salvation has anything to do
With your empty promises
And what you think is true
Well heres my donation
If its all the same to you
I am the voice on your tv
But I am one and I am free
Always to say what I believe
I know youre only
A voice on my tv
The numbers on the screen
Will help me get to heaven
So it would seem
The money flows and flows
And no-one cares enough
To know where it goes
Look at all the millions
That youve taken for a ride
With the warmest words
And the coldest heart inside
And how much longer
Can I listen to your lies
What are all the
Credit card believers gonna say
When they hear about the scandals
And the lovers that you pay
And all about the meetings
In your secret hideaway
I am the voice on your tv
But I am one and I am free
Always to say what I believe
Youre just a voice on my tv
Your powers strong but I am free
Always to say what I believe
I am the voice on your tv
But I am one and I am free
Always to say what I believe
Can you hear me
I am the voice on your tv
But I am one and I am free
Always to say what I believe
This is your conscience speaking

Hernando's Hideaway
I know a dark, secluded place
A place where no one knows your face!
A glass of wine, a fast embrace
It's called Hernando's Hideaway, a-way!
All you see are silhouettes
And all you hear are castanets
And no one cares how late it gets
Not at Hernando's hideaway, a-way!
At the Golden Finger Bowl or anyplace you go
You will meet your Uncle Max and everyone you know
But if you go to the spot that I am thinking of
You will be free to gaze at me and talk of love
Just knock three times and whisper low
That you and I were sent by Joe
Then strike and match and you will know
You're in Hernando's hideaway, a-way!
I know a dark, secluded place
A place where no one ever knows your face!
Wine is fine with a fast embrace
Hernando's Hideaway -away!
At the Golden Finger Bowl or anyplace you go
You will meet your Uncle Max and everyone you know
But if you go to the spot that I am thinking of
You will be free to gaze at me and talk of love
Just knock three times and whisper low
That you and I were sent by Joe
Then strike and match and you will know
You're in Hernando's hideaway!

I go out with the crowd, I play the game
Pretending out loud but it dont seem the same
For the heart of the crowd is gone from sight
My part of the crowd is not with me tonight
I remember the prom, every dance with you
All the crazy things that we used to do
Sometimes wed wait for a chance
And then wed steal away
From the crowd and the dance to our hideaway
Aww, but youre gone and its not the same old game
I fall apart each time I hear your name
Guess Ill go along with the crowd, Ill make believe
That youll come back to me, run back to me
Hurry back to the crow-ow-ow-owd a-and me-e-e-e-e.

No Limits
One life - never been a riddle
Black nights - live it to the max
Its all extremely done
No way - to colonise the middle
Ride hard - desperadoes at your back
Under a blood red sun
In this world - up to us
We stand or we fall - yeah
We got no limits - no hideaway
We got no limits - live today
We got no limits - the way to stay
We got no limits - no limits all the way
Gear up - life is what we make it
Rock hard - shaft it to the top
Weve only just begun
Suns up - were gonna do some shakin
Break out - we give it all we got
Make way cause here we come
In this world we decide
To answer the call - yeah
We got no limits, ...
Power n riches n rank
Mean nothing at all
Render the game to the en
Once and for all - once and for all - yeah
We got no limits, ...
We got no limits - no hideaway
We got no limits - live today
We got no limits - the way to stay
We got no limits
Evrybody live the life

Is There Something I Should Know?
I made a run, I run out yesterday
Tried to find my mountain hideaway
Maybe next year, maybe no go
I know youre watching me every minute of the day, yeah
Ive seen the signs and the looks and pictures
That give your game away, yeah
Theres a dream that strings the road
With broken glass for us to hold
And I cut so far before I had to say
Please, please tell me now
Is there something I should know?
Is there something I should say?
That would make you come my way
Do you feel the same cos you dont let it show
People stare and cross the road from me
And jungle drums they all clear the way for me
Can you read my mind, can you see in the snow
And fiery demons all dance when you walk through that door
Dont say youre easy on me, youre about as easy as a nuclear war
Please, please tell me now
Is there something I should know?
Is there something I should say?
That would make you come my way
Do you feel the same cos you dont let it show
Please, please tell me now
Is there something I should know?
Is there something I should say?
That would make you come my way
Please, please tell me now
Is there something I should know?
Is there something I should say?
That would make you come my way
Please, please tell me now
Can you see what makes me blow?
Can you see how much I die?
Every time it passes by
Please, please tell me now
What it takes to make you show
Is there something I should know?
Is there something I should say?

Waiting For You To Decide
Used to think that youd do anything for me.
I thought your heart was pounding at my door.
Now it seems that things arent right.
Youve been crying evry night.
Youre rainy season just aint slowing down.
I still love you even though theres things you cant explain.
I dont want to know if youve been lying all along.
Youve been running away. now youve run out of places to hide.
I can no longer stand here waiting for you to decide
If theres a heart still left inside.
Theres someone watching tonight.
Youve been trying for some time to get away from me.
Its just the same old game youve tried before.
Weve talked it out a thousand time. its still the same old useless lines.
Youve made your point now why cant I make mine?
I still love you even though theres things you cant explain.
I dont want to know if youve been lying all this time.
Youve been running away. now youve run out of places to hide.
I can no longer stand here waiting for you to decide
If theres a heart still left inside.
You cant get away. theres someone watching tonight.

Watching Me Watching You
I sit by the cutting on the beaconsfield line.
Hes watching me watching the trains go by.
And they move so fast --- boy, they really fly.
Hes still watching me watching you watching the
Trains go by.
And the way he stares --- feel like locking my door
And pulling my phone from the wall.
His eyes, like lights from a laser, burn
Making my hair stand --- making the goose-bumps crawl.
Hes watching me watching you watching him
Watching me
Im watching you watching him watching me
Watching stares.
At the cocktail party with a bucks fizz in my hand
I feel him watching me watching the girls go by.
And they move so smooth without even trying.
Hes still watching me watching you watching the
Trains go by.
And the crowd thins and he moves up close but he doesnt speak.
I have to look the other way.
But curiosity gets the better part of me and I peek:
Got two drinks in his hand --- see his lips move ---
What the hells he trying to say.
Hes watching me watching you watching him
Watching me.
Im watching you watching him watching me
Watching stares.
Hes watching me watching you watching him
Watching me.
Hes watching me watching you watching
The trains go by.
Hes watching me watching you watching him
Watching me.
Hes watching me watching you watching him watching me.
Hes watching me watching you watching him watching me watching him watching.

Shes Beside You
Written by dan peek, 1976
Found on hideaway.
Do wop, do wop ...
Youve got to give, youve got to live
Youve got to show everyone that you know
Till you know shes beside you
Till you know shes beside you
Youve got to shout all about
Youve got to tell everyone that you know
Till you know shes beside you
Till you know shes beside you
cause I know just how it feels
To find that love is real, so real
Youve got to shout all about
Youve got to tell everyone that you know
Till you know shes beside you
Till you know shes beside you
cause I know just how it feels
To find that love is real, so real
Youve got to give, youve got to live
Youve got to show everyone that you know
Till you know shes beside you
Till you know shes beside you

I Only Wave My Hand To My Neighbor
i only wave my hand
to my neighbor
not wanting to go beyond
that intimacy or
that familiarity which i have always
thought of
(as others do too)
as a breeder of
contempt
& i do not want that
to happen,
sometimes, we choose the luxury of
our own privacy
the dignity of our own hideaway
inside the pages of a book
in the busy world
of our minds
we dance there
alone with our own hands
to the sounds of the patting of our
own feet.

Secret Society
When we were young they would break our hearts
You and I had to go undercover
We knew in time we would be pulled apart
We found a way we could hold on to each other
Gave our souls to another world
Sealed in blood with a sacred vow
Now weve forgotten but beneath all this
A part of you and me is still there now
Go on and sing
Go on and dance
Itll all come back if you just give it a chance
Dont you remember me?
We had a secret society
Refresh your memory
We were the secret society
I never see you in the waking world
We make an effort to avoid each other
But every night we penetrate the veil
Where everybody acts like sister and brother
You never speak the words in broad daylight
Theyre much too delicate and too naive
But everybodys been a witness sometime
It doesnt change it if you dont believe
So go on and sing
Go on and dance
Someday soon youll hear that little bell ring
And youll remember me
We have a secret society
Not just a memory
We are the secret society
Youve got to come with me
Youre in the secret society
Until eternity
We are the secret society (its no secret)
