Couldnt Get It Right
You wake up in the morning
Look for a clue, something new
Turn on the radio and its as dead
As the visions dying in your head
And when you were young
You had big ideas no hidden fears
You had your heroes they were walkin tall
Now your devotion seems comical
So now you got older
And the worlds got colder than it used to be
Every day gets longer and turns into the darker night
Down in the gutter nothing seems to matter cos youre history
I couldnt get it, I couldnt get it right
You played the game as children
Didnt understand lifes not so grand
Love hurts you and you could feel the lonely, lonely one
Some people got it easy
They got it made, so unafraid
Youll be the fool and /fight/find/ the winner hes gonna take it all

Wotcha Gonna Do
Written by ricki, kim & marty wilde
I couldnt believe what I read when I got your letter
Said you needed to take some time to work out your life, yeah
Well, its easy for you to just go off and do what you want
Any time you please
Dont expect me to wait
If you leave its too late
Youre gonna have to crawl back on your knees
Wotcha gonna do when it gets so lonely
When youre down and so far away from home
How ya gonna feel, you know it wont get better
Cos youve made your bed so you can lie in it on your own
Wotcha gonna do
I knew youd been feeling the need to just change direction
But I didnt know you were gonna walk away from me, no
Now youre out on your own cos you think youve outgrown
All the things that you left behind
But its crazy to see
Cos you know without me
Youre gonna end up losing more than you find
Wotcha gonna do when it gets so lonely
When youre down and so far away from home
How ya gonna feel, you know it wont get better
Cos youve made your bed so you can lie in it on your own
Yeah, yeah
Now dont be a fool on yourself
Cos youve got so much to lose
And I really love you baby
Dont you know that I do, yeah
How ya gonna feel, you know it wont get better
Now youre down and so far away
Now youre down and so far away
Now youre down and so far away from home
Wotcha gonna do
How ya gonna feel

When You Kiss Me
This could be it, I think Im in love
Its love this time
It just seems to fit, I think Im in love
This love is mine
I can see you with me when Im older
All my lonely night are finally over
You took the weight of the world off my
Shoulders (the world just goes away)
[chorus:]
Oh, when you kiss me
I know you miss me--
And when youre with me
The world just goes away
The way you hold me
The way you show me that you
Adore me--oh, when you kiss me
Oh, yeah
You are the one, I think Im in love
Life has begun
I can see the two of us together
I know Im gonna be with you forever
Love couldnt be any better
[repeat chorus]
[instrumental solo]
I can see you with me when Im older
All my lonely nights are finally over
You took the weight of the world off my
Shoulders (the world just goes away)

And when you kiss me
I know you miss me
Oh, the world just goes away
When you kiss me

So Lonely
Well someone told me yesterday
That when you throw your love away
You act as if you just dont care
You look as if youre going somewhere
But I just cant convince myself
I couldnt live with no one else
And I can only play that part
And sit and nurse my broken heart
So lonely, so lonely, so lonely, so lonely
So lonely, so lonely, so lonely
So lonely, so lonely, so lonely
So lonely, so lonely
Know no ones knocked upon my door
For a thousand years or more
All made up and no where to go
Welcome to this one man show
Just take a seat theyre always free
No surprise no mystery
In this theatre that I call my soul
I always play the starring role
So lonely, so lonely, so lonely, so lonely
So lonely, so lonely, so lonely
So lonely, so lonely, so lonely
So lonely, so lonely
So lonely, so lonely, so lonely, so lonely
So lonely, so lonely, so lonely
I feel so lonely...

Shine A Little Love
Although the things youve done I wouldnt criticize.
I guess you had your way.
You see I gotta make you understand.
I know it sounds a foolish thing to say.
But it dont matter baby cos todays another day.
Chorus
You shine a little love on my life
You shine a little love on my life
You shine a little love on my life and let me see.
Remember,tonight were gonna run till dawn
Remember,tonight were gonna say.
Well never stop we got a good thing goin on.
I know youve heard it all before.
But I really need you darlin every day I need you more.
Repeat chorus
Can you understand.(yes I understand) can you feel its right.
(I know it is) will you be the same.(Ill do it all again).
Its been a year now and its getting so much better.
You came home without a word.
Though everybody said youll soon forget her.
Thay couldnt see and they just didnt understand.
And lookin in the mirror there were fools at either hand.
Can you understand.(yes I understand) can you feel its right.
(I know it is) will you be the same.(Ill do it all again).
How many days had I been waiting there to tell you.
I really cant believe.
Were walkin out into the world tonight.
Well do it all again until the break of light.
And the feelin in your heart will soon be shinin in your eyes

Mr Blue
Winter sounds the crying
Like an old man slowly dying
And the only sound, the wind that fills the trees
Even colder comes the moon
And though it never seems too soon
A sudden stillness as the rainfall starts to freeze
(chorus)
Im mr blue
Im here to stay with you
And no matter what you do
When youre lonely - Ill be lonely too
(repeat)
A young girl, she is shaded
Bears the scars that never faded
Of the baby that was born on christmas day
While the heavens sing their song
A childs life is never long
cos the food supplies will only last a day
(chorus repeat)
Patriot emotion, is the cause of the commotion
After all theres really no-one here to blame
Soldiers taking orders, cos we must defend the borders
Of our nation (and the other sides the same)
(chorus repeat)
Ill come to you at night
When all the world is sleeping tight
And lie beside you, till the early morning dew
You cant hear me, you cant see
But you can feel me when you read
The folded letter she left addressed to you
(chorus repeat)

Winning
One day I was on the ground
When I needed a hand
And it couldnt be found
I was so far down
That I couldnt get up
You know and
One day I was one of lifes losers
Even my friends were my ac-cus-ers
And in my head
Lost before Id begun
I had a dream
But it turned to dust
What I thought was love
That must have been lust
I was living in style
When the walls fell in
When I played my hand
I looked like a joker
Turn around
Fate must have woke her
cause lady luck she was
Waiting outside the door
Chorus:
Im winning
Im winning
Im winning
And I dont intend on losing again
Too bad it belonged to me
It was the wrong time
And I meant to be
It took a long time
And I knew for now
I can see the day
That I breath for
Friends agree theres a need
To play the game
And to win again

Wake up, maggie, I think I got some-thing to say to you:
Its late september and I really should be back at school.
I know I keep you amused, but I feel Im being used.
Oh, maggie, I couldnt have tried any more.
You lured me away from home, just to save you from being alone.
You stole my heart and thats what really hurts.
The morning sun, when its in your face really shows your age.
But that dont worry me none; in my eyes youre everything.
I laughed at all of your jokes, my love you didnt need to coax,
Oh, maggie I couldnt have tried any more.
You lured me away from home, just to save you from being alone.
You stole my soul thats a pain I can do without.
All I need was a friend to lend a guiding hand.
But you turned into a lover and mother what a lover your wore me out.
All you did was wreck my bed, and in the morning kick me in the head,
Oh, maggie I couldnt have tried any more.
You lured me away from home, cause you didnt want to be alone.
You stole my heart I couldnt leave you if I tried.
I suppose I could collect my books and get back to school.
Or steal my daddys cue and make a living out of playing pool.
Or find myself a rock and roll band that needs a helping hand,
Oh, maggie, I wish Id never seen your face.
You made a first class fool out of me,
But Im as blind as a fool can be.
You stole my heart, but I love you anyway.
Maggie, I wish I never seen your face.
Ill get on back home one of these days.

Something Beautiful
You cant manufacture a miracle
The silence was pitiful - that day.
And love is getting too cynical
Passions just physical - these days
You analyse everyone you meet
But get no sign, the loving kind
Every night you admit defeat
And cry yourself blind
Chorus
If you cant wake up in the morning
Cause your bed lies vacant at night
If youre lost, hurt, tired or lonely
Cant control it, try as you might
May you find that love that wont leave you
May you find it by the end of the day
You wont be lost, hurt, tired and lonely
Something beautiful will come your way
The dj said on the radio
Life should be stereo, each day
And the past that cast the unsuitable
Instead of some kind of beautiful, you just couldnt wait
All your friends think youre satisfied
But they cant see your soul no, no, no
Forgot the time feeling petrified, when they lived alone
Repeat chorus
Some kind of beautiful (will come your way)

All your friends think youre satisfied
But they cant see your soul no no no
Forgot the time feeling petrified
When they lived alone

Only A Lad
Johnny was bad, even as a child everybody could tell
Everyone said if you dont get straight
Youll surely go to hell
But johnny didnt care
He was an outlaw by the time that he was
Ten years old
He didnt wanna do what he was told
Just a prankster, juvenile gangster
His teachers didnt understand
They kicked him out of school
At a tender early age
Just because he didnt want to learn things
(had other interests)
He liked to burn things
The lady down the block
She had a radio that johnny wanted oh so bad
So he took it the first chance he had
Then he shot her in the leg
And this is what she said
Only a lad
You really cant blame him
Only a lad
Society made him
Only a lad
Hes our responsibility
Only a lad
He really couldnt help it
Only a lad
He didnt want to do it
Only a lad
Hes underprivileged and abused
Perhaps a little bit confused
His parents gave up they couldnt influence his attitude
Nobody could help
The little man had no gratitude
And when he stole the care
Nobody dreamed that he would
Try to take it so far
He didnt mean to hit the poor man
Who had to go and die
It made the judge cry
Only a lad
He really couldnt help it
Only a lad
He didnt want to do it
Only a lad
Hes underprivileged and abused
Perhaps a little bit confused
Its not his fault that he cant believe
Its not his fault that he cant behave
Society made him go astray
Perhaps if were nice hell go away
Perhaps hell go away
Hell go away
(repeat chorus)
Hey there johnny you really dont fool me
You get away with murder
And you think its funny
You dont give a damn if we live or if we die
Hey there johnny boy
I hope you fry!

Someone Belong To Someone
I know how I feel
Lonely in the black of night
There can be no love for me now
Nobody listens when the words aint right
And you get into someone else
Its hard for me to know
Whos lovin who
And where do I stand
What did I do it all for
Theres no one I could love more
I did it for your heart alone
All that I try to be growin inside to me
I can be strong if youre there
And there is someone belonging to someone
And I got no one belonging to me
I live in a world where the face of an angel
Is all that a fool can see
You got the power to find me whenever Im lost
Where are you ? who are we?
I believe in time
Can eat away a heart of stone
And baby if I leave you too late
Its just a feather and the bird has flown
Its colder when the fire dies
With all the trouble Im in if I lose you too
Then what is my life
If I dont wanna go through
Anything without you
Couldnt be life at all
I could be lyin on
You are the only one
We didnt make it by chance
And there is someone
Belonging to someone
And I got no one belonging to me
Im caught in a world on
The edge of tomorrow
Its all that a fool can find
I dont belong in the arms
Of a love that is lost
Nowhere to cry
There must be something we
Can say my love
Something except goodbye
And there is someone belonging to someone
And I got no one belonging to me

Dreaming
Kids are cruising on the old shoreline
Goodbye-girls killing time
Feel like soldiers we couldnt wait
Running wild, rushing to our fate
* we kept dreaming, kids are dreaming
Sleeping rough out on brightons beach
A step from the law just out of reach
** we kept dreaming, dreaming me and you
*** got a plan we couldnt 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
Gangs assemble in the old arcade
By looking cool we thought we had it made
* repeat
We ran wildly against the tide
Nothing much just our teenage pride
** repeat ***
Repeat

Down the alleys to the old stage door
They heard the band coming through the floor
Eric burdon and the animals played
In our minds the impressions made

About Last Night
Morning came before I knew
Just what I had gotten into
Glanced around in the bright light
I really couldnt care if it was wrong or right
Love can only break you heart
But youre never gonna know unless you give it a start
Sometimes, you gotta let yourself go
1:
Was it good for you? about last night
Was it way too soon? you didnt put up a fight
Was it good for you? I wont ask again
See about last night, I want to do it again
I know sometimes its worth the wait
Im not the type to hesitate
No more feelings all night long
I really couldnt care if I came on too strong
Experience just says it all
You gotta make a move just as soon as you fall
Oh, sometimes, you gotta let yourself go
Repeat 1 x4
Was it good for you? (was it good? )
Was it way to soon? (it never felt so right)
Was it good for you?
See about last night
Was it good for you?
Was it way too soon?
Was it good for you?
See about last night

Over & Above
Half past 12 on a friday night everythings wrong and it doesnt feel right
Tried to talk to someone in the bar she didnt like my face I didnt get far
When you grow up youre gonna walk big strides just like me
When you grow up youre gonna hit the big time wait and see
And I listened to his guiding voice like a man who overhears god
Over and above what Im capable of
You couldnt take the weight of my purest innocence
Over and above what Im capable of
You couldnt take the weight of my purest innocence
Are you over
So tall daddy used to tower above him symbol of unreachable
Time fades icons of perfection cruel result but not intention
His values are not the ones I choose hes failed in himself
In the blaze of his pride an independence expressed
Not there is no guiding voice like a man who loses god
Over and above what Im capable of
You couldnt take the weight of my purest innocence
Over and above what Im capable of
You couldnt take the weight of my purest innocence
Are you over
And a man cant understand his father til he becomes a father too
Now his own sons expectation becomes his own hearts burden new
Dad I didnt understand the pressure could it bring them back together
Over and above what Im capable of
You couldnt take the weight of my purest innocence
Over and above what Im capable of
You couldnt take the weight of my purest innocence

Cry, Cry, Cry
Everybody knows where you go when the sun goes down
They say you only live to see the lights of town
I wasted my time when I would try, try, try
cause when the lights have lost their glow, youll cry, cry, cry
Soon your sugar-daddies will all be gone
And youll wake up some cold day and find youre alone
Youll come to me but Im gonna tell you bye, bye, bye
When I turn around and walk away, youll cry, cry, cry
Youre gonna cry, cry, cry and youll cry alone
When everyones forgotten and youre on your own
Youre gonna cry, cry, cry
I lie awake at night and wait till you come in
You stay a little while and then youre gone again
Every question that I ask, I get a lie, lie, lie
For every lie you tell, youre gonna cry, cry, cry
When your fickle little love gets old, no one will care for you
Youll come back to me for a little love thats true
Ill tell you no and youre gonna ask me why, why, why
When I remind you of all of this, youll cry, cry, cry
Youre gonna cry, cry, cry and youll want me there
Itll hurt when you think of the fool youve been
Youre gonna cry, cry, cry

Love Is Blind
I tried to give you love
That was ever flowing
I tried to give a love
That could be so true
But you wanted less
Than I had to offer
What was I to do
I tried to bare a soul
That would swear devotion(? )
I tried to promise dreams
I would make come true
But you said that love was
A game for children
Here I stand, a fool
Love is blind
Blinded by love
Youre all I can see in my eyes
My mind says, stop
But my heart says, go
And oh, how it hurts to find
Its true when they say that
Love is blind
Love is blind
I told myself if there
Was a chance to show you
Just how good a love affair could be
But love was something that
You had never given
I just couldnt see
I closed my eyes to all that
You never gave me
(? ? ? )my heart didnt wanna see
How you played around
And how well you showed me
How wounded love can be
Love is blind
Blinded by love
Youre all I can see in my eyes
My mind says, stop
But my heart says, go
Oh, how it hurts to find
Its true when they say that
Love is blind
