Down To You
Everything comes and goes
Marked by lovers and styles of clothes
Things that you held high
And told yourself were true
Lost or changing as the days come down to you
Down to you
Constant stranger
Youre a kind person
Youre a cold person too
Its down to you
It all comes down to you.
You go down to the pick up station
Craving warmth and beauty
You settle for less than fascination
A few drinks later youre not so choosy
When the closing lights strip off the shadows
On this strange new flesh youve found
Clutching the night to you like a fig leaf
You hurry
To the blackness
And the blankets
To lay down an impression
And your loneliness
In the morning there are lovers in the street
They look so high
You brush against a stranger
And you both apologize
Old friends seem indifferent
You must have brought that on
Old bonds have broken down
Love is gone
Ooh, love is gone
Written on your spirit this sad song
Love is gone
Everything comes and goes
Pleasure moves on too early
And trouble leaves too slow
Just when youre thinking
Youve finally got it made
Bad news comes knocking
At your garden gate
Knocking for you
Constant stranger
Youre a brute-youre an angel
You can crawl-you can fly too
Its down to you
It all comes down to you

Stranger Stranger

Theres a crazy moon, a crazy sky, looking down on me

Fine As Fine Can Be
Youre as soft as the rose
Youre as sweet as the honey
Youre as warm as the bright morning sun
Youre as cool as the breeze on the last days of april
Youre as fine as fine can be
Youre like time is to space
Youre like faith is to trustin
Youre like blue is to feelin unkind
Youre like joy is for love,
Youre like dreams are for chasin

And when I am gone my thoughts are all with you
Youre my little angel you see
Youre as bright as the moon
Youre as light as a feather
Youre as fine as fine can be

Youre like food for my thoughts
Youre like true is for knowin whats not

The Lonely
(mark jones/lari white/chuck cannon)
Theres a band called the lonely playin downtown tonight
And man, they know their way around the blues
Theres not an empty space in the parkin lot
And theres a line stretchin around the block
And the sad man standin at the door says the place is full of broken hearts
If youre here to see the lonely, if youre here to see the lonely
Its standin room only for the lonely
Oh, you can dance with a stranger under the smoky blue lights
You can stand alone with lovers who love to lose
You can drown in your pain if theres room at the bar
You can hide your tears, you can cry in the dark
While the lonely sings a song straight to your broken heart
If youre here to see the lonely, if youre here to see the lonely
Its standin room only
If youre here to see the lonely, if youre here to see the lonely
Its standin room only
If youre here to see the lonely, if youre here to see the lonely
If youre here to see the lonely, if youre here to see the lonely
Its standin room only

I Hear You Knockin
You went away and left me long time ago
And now youre knocking on my door
I hear you knocking
But you cant come in
I hear you knocking
Go back where youve been
I begged you not to go but you said goodbye
And now youre telling me all your lies
I hear you knocking
But you cant come in
I hear you knocking
Go back where youve been
Ahhh yeah
Let me hear it
Ohhooo woo
Oohh
You better get to your use-to-be
cause your kind of love aint good to me
I hear you knocking
But you cant come in
I hear you knocking
Go back where youve been
I told you way back in 52
That I would never go with you
I hear you knocking
But you cant come in
I hear you knocking
Go back where youve been

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

Spit On A Stranger
However you feel
Whatever it takes
Whenever its real
Whatever awaits me
Whatever you need
However so light
Whenever its real
Whenever its right
[chorus]
Ive been thinking long and hard about the things you said to me
Like a bitter stranger
Now I see the long and short the middle and whats in between
I could spit on a stranger (pull me out)
Youre a bitter stranger (pull me out)
Whatever you feel
Whatever it takes
Whenever its real
Whatever awaits me
Whatever you need
However so slight

Honey, Im a prize and youre a catch and were a perfect match
Like two bitter strangers
Now I see the long and short of it and I can make it last
I could spit on a stranger (pull me out)
Youre a bitter stranger (pull me out)i could spit on a stranger (pull me out)
Youre a bitter stranger (pull me out)
I could spit on a stranger (pull me out)
Youre a bitter stranger (pull me out)

Ill try the things you never try
Ill be the one that leaves you high, high, high

Our Little Angel
This is the place where I made my best mistakes
This is the place even angels dont understand
Ive seen the disappointment in her face
And the collection of engagement rings on her right hand
She sits alone apart from the crowd
In a white dress she wears like a question mark
Friends speak of her fondly
Enemies just think out loud
You think youre man enough to please her
And youre fool enough to start
Youre not going to do a thing to our little angel
Theres nothing youre thinking tonight that tomorrow wont change
Now the cabaret is frozen and the laughter comes in cans
And the lonely hearts club clientele dont know what to do with their hands
You think that youll be sweet to her but everybody knows
That youre the marshmallow valentine that got stuck on her clothes
But youre not going to do a thing to our little angel
Theres nothing youre thinking tonight that tomorrow wont change
So you mix your drinks and words
You make bad jokes you make bad time
The floors are there to walk over
The walls are there to climb
You swear that youll never go back again once youre inside
Youre never the bridegroom shes always the bride
And youre not going to do a thing to our little angel
Theres nothing youre thinking tonight that tomorrow wont change
Youll come in a sweetheart and youll go out a stranger
Well you try to love her but shes so contrary
Like a chainsaw running through a dictionary
So get your mind off the sweet behind of our little angel
Youre not going to do a thing
Youre not going to do a thing
Youre not going to do a thing to our little angel

Youre The One
Evry night, evry day
Youre the one I always dream of
Evry line of your face
Is sketched so plain inside my heart
Youve grown so deep inside of me
Youre everything I feel and see
And youre the one, youre the one I love
All my life, all my love
I can feel when youre beside me
All thats right, all thats wrong
Suddenly becomes so clear
My heart has overtaken me
With feelings you awake in me
And youre the one, youre the one I love
Only you could move me enough to believe in love one more time
All I need to know for tomorrow is that youre mine
Mine for a lifetime
If our friends all around
Find it hard to understand us
You and I understand the other one so very well
And thats what Ive been looking for
So I keep coming back for more
cause youre the one, youre the one I love
Youre the one, youre the one I love

Dead & Broken
Too many things Ive never spoken
Im not feeling fine
I never told you what to do
I never made you a promise that you could hold me to
Thatll be the day you see me crying
Everyday, I still say youre dead and broken
Everyday, I still say youre dead and broken
Youre dead and broken
How many faces can you show me?
How many times can you be right?
Another world of fantasy
Another reason for dramatizing everything
Taking it all in just one more time
Im dying
Everyday, I still say youre dead and broken
Everyday, I still say youre dead and broken
Youre dead and broken
Sorry to see that youre underestimated lately
Id rather be dead and broken than living in your grace
Everyday, I still say youre dead and broken
Everyday, I still say youre dead and broken
Youre dead and broken
Youre dead and broken
Youre dead and broken
Youre dead and broken
Youre dead and broken
Youre dead and broken

We Will Not Be Lovers
You just stepped into the maintrack
Climbed down off the fence
Words are your weapon
Lies are your defence
I know what you want
And I see what you see
Youre looking for somebody
But he isnt me
Find yourself another
Because we will not be lovers
How your eyes are like tortures
And your presence is bliss
I never knew time
Could speed and zip like this
The touch of your flesh
Is tough to resist
Planets collide, collide
At the smack of your kiss
But you can kiss your brother
Because we will not be lovers
Now youre pulling down curtains
Youve been sparking old flames
Youve been causing disturbance
Crying for shame
Youve been knocking on doors
Youve been abusing my name
Youve been casting up doubt
Youve been throwing your blame
But you can throw it at your mother
We will not be lovers
Now the worlds full of trouble
Everybodys scared
The landlords are frowning
Cupboards are bare
People are scrambling
Like dogs for a share
Its cruel and its hard
But it nothing compared to
What we do to each other
To each other
We will not be lovers!
We will not be lovers, no
We will not be lovers, no

Youre All I Have
Waking ups to dream about last night
Needing to touch you once more
Wondering whats happened to this broken heart of mine
I feel it beating so strong, feels like something so ?
Still without you I cant live
Youre all I have
Please dont take your love from me
Youre all I have
Youre my life, my destiny
Youre all I have
My only reason to believe
You are my heaven, my hell
Still youre all I need to live
Wondering through memories with you
I know, the love never die
Im stepping out of lonelyness
This time for good
I need to have you again
Were more than lovers or friends
Still without you I cant live
Youre all I have
Please dont take your love from me
Youre all I have
Youre my life, my destiny
Youre all I have
My only reason to believe
You are my heaven, my hell
Still youre all I need
Youre all I have
Please dont take your love from me
Youre all I have
Youre my life, my destiny
Youre all I have
My only reason to believe
You are my heaven, my hell
Youre all I have
Please dont take your love
From me
Youre all I have
Youre my life, my destiny
Youre all I have
My only reason to believe
You are my heaven, my hell

Sixteen
Youve been a juvenile
With a dolphin smile
With no elbow room
Youve had in your little backyard
Portected by big walls
You didnt dare look over
cause youve been too small
Now youre finally sixteen
And youre feelin old
But they wont believe
That you got a soul
cause youre only sixteen
And youre feeling real
But you cant seem to cup a feel
Why do they have to force us
Through this metamorphose
Little butterfly
No matter how you try
Youll be segregated
Youre gonna be closed off
Youre callow and youre green
cause youre caught between
Youre only sixteen
Try to cross the line
But your little wings are interwined
Youre only sixteen
And youre such a tease
And theres nothing you can do
That can really please
These children
Theyre not really bad most of them
Theyre just products
Of rotten neighborhoods
And bad family situations
You know you cant forsake it
So sit back and take it
You see youre just not ripe
So dont try and fight that
Youre only sixteen
You wanna catch a peek
But they look at you
Like youre such a freak
Well youre only sixteen
With a lot to say
But they wont give you
The time of day
Youre only sixteen!
Youre only sixteen!!
Youre just sixteen!!!

Youre Not Alone
I see you there, a silhouette in the moonlight;
Looks like youve given up on love.
You used to be the face in the spotlight;
Now lonliness fits you like a glove.
You walk around in your cloak of darkness,
Too blind to see the light.
Your wings are broken, now your spirit cant take flight.
Youre not alone, youre not alone,
While your hearts still young and free.
Youre not alone, pick up the phone
And talk to me; baby, you will see
Youre not alone.
Pools of sorrow and tears of joy;
Theres a broken-up girl for every broken-down boy.
But you dont wanna hear it,
You like the rhythm of the blues;
Wanna be a sad story on the late-night news.
I dont mean to burst your bubble,
But the worlds got troubles worse than you.
And everybody else out here gets lonely too.
Youre not alone, youre not alone,
I;ve been waiting patiently.
No, youre not alone, pick up the phone
And talk to me, baby, you will see...
Although your heart is in pieces,
You cant find a reason to try.
Youre not alone, while Im still standing by.

Give up youre love to me

When I tell you
To be on the look out
You cant call for help
cause I know you inside out
Despite all your hideouts

Ill make you surrender
So come along quietly
Heres a thought to remember
I have not met a man yet
To escape from my drag-net

Give up youre love to me

Give up youre love to me
Give up, give up

And you can draw all your own conclusions
Ill keep your mind surrounded
With chains of love so strong
You cant break through them
My arsenal is stocked
With all kinds of seductive weapons
Although your hearts locked up
My love will assist me
So that you cant resist me

The London Boys
Cow bell strikes another night
Your eyes are heavy and your limbs all ache
Youve bought some coffee, butter and bread
You cant make a thing cause the meters dead
You moved away
Hold your folks youre gonna stay away
Bright lights, soho, wardour street
You hope you make friends with the guys that you meet
Somebody shows you round
Now youve met the london boys
Things seem good again, someone cares about you
Oh, the first time that you tried a pill
You feel a little queasy, decidedly ill
Youre gonna be sick, but you mustnt lose faith
To let yourself down would be a big disgrace
With the london boys, with the london boys
Youre only seventeen, but you think youve grown
In the month youve been away from your parents home
You take the pills too much
You dont give a damn about that jobs youve got
So long as youre with the london boys
A london boy, oh a london boy
Your flashy clothes are your pride and joy
A london boy, a london boy
You think youve had a lot of fun
But you aint got nothing, youre on the run
Its too late now, cause youre out there boy
Youve got it made with the rest of the toys
Now you wish youd never left your home
Youve got what you wanted but youre on your own
With the london boys

Now youve met the london boys

You came up on me like a landslide
Once in awhile I get taken like that
And I like it
Ive got a thunderbird parked right outside
Give me a minute to finish this thing
And well light it.
In all this heat its a job keeping cool
Oh yeah

You came up on me like a landslide
Once in awhile I get taken like that
And I like it
Youre gonna get whats coming
Youve been asking for it two days running
Youre gonna get whats coming
Youre gonna get whats coming to you
I hope that youre half as intrepid
As you make out
More often than not, Ill bet
You never got what you asked for
Keep on pouring until you hear me shout
And turn up the sound
If you want me to drive any faster
Caution went out when you walked in the room
If it never came back it would be too soon
Youre gonna get whats coming
Youve been asking for it two days running
Youre gonna get whats coming
Youre gonna get whats coming to you
Youre gonna get whats coming
Youve been asking for it two days running
