The Lights Are Going Out
Theres a painting on the wall
That wasnt there at all
Ten minutes ago
Theres a girl who walks the line
Shes with you all the time
She wont let go
And I cant see me with another girl
As everything slows down across the world
The lights are going out
One by one
Across the world
With faces turning sown
The night will hide the sound
She comes to you
And I cant see me with another girl
As everything slows down across the world
In a harbor safe from storm
She waits for darkened forms
Shes seen you there
And time and time again
You hear her call your name
She calls for you
And I cant see me with another girl
As everything slows down across the world
The lights are gong out
One by one
Across the world
The lights are going out
One by one
Across the world

Modern Girl
Shes a modern girl
Out to rule the world
And nothing can stop her now
She knows what she wants
And shes out to get it
Shes a modern girl
Life is hard in a midlands town
For a girl with her head in the clouds
Everybody puts her down
Shes just one of the crowd
She finds it aint easy
To stand on her own two feet
It aint easy
She knows this time she wont be beat
Shes a modern girl
Out to rule the world
And nothing can stop her now
She knows what she wants
And shes out to get it
Shes a modern girl
Now its time for her to find
The way its always been
Love is just a word to her
Another broken dream
She finds it aint easy
To stand on her own two feet
It aint easy
She knows this time she wont be beat
Shes a modern girl
Out to rule the world
And nothing can stop her now
She knows what she wants
And shes out to get it
Shes a modern girl

Map Of The World
Watching the people on the street today she couldnt help but smile
Watchin the town go walking by all shaded eyes and alibis
Strange how much pain you can hide away beneath a well-cut suit
This is the day she walks away
And the lights of the city pushin a good time
Asking her out tonight
But shes saving her money for a better life
Shes got a map of the world
Pinned up on her wall
Shes got a map of the world
Shes gonna go and see it all
Shes gonna see it all
Watchin the people on the street today
Such a lonely sight
swore she could see their dreams go by
All cars and stars and buy buy buy
Runnin on empty runnin to stand still
No time for their own lives
Sleepwalking through the danger signs
And it feels a little scary
A little runaway
Letting go of all shes done
And the lights of the city, well theyre all singin
Buy some of this, cmon
But when you lie to yourself
You lie to everyone
Shes got a map of the world
Pinned up on her wall
Shes got a map of the world
Shes gonna go and see it all
Shes gonna see it all
Shell empty the sand from her shoes
In paradise
Sail out across the bay
Shell dance under an island sky
Until the break of day
Shes got a map of the world
Pinned up on her wall
Its such a beautiful world
Glistening and magical
Shes got a map of the world
Shining away in her mind
Colouring-in her life
This is the day she walks
Shes gonna see it all
Shes gonna breathe it all
Paris london new york
Shes gonna see it all

Popular Girl
When she walks in the room, every eye in the place
Turns to follow her every move
Shes arrived on the scene in her diamonds and jeans
World class -- shes got nothing to prove
It takes a long time to know her, whe gives it up a little at a time
*shes gettin what she wants
Shes a popular girl
Settin those hearts on fire
Everybody wants to be
Part of her world
Shes a popular girl
Such a popular girl*
She walks down the street, knocks em dead on their feet
With a casual nonchalance
When shes breaking your heart, shes the state of the art
With license to take what she wants
It takes a hard man to hold her, she likes to get a little out of line
( * repeat)
She waits by the window, the world is her stage
Each smile is her mirror in the passing parade, passing parade
And in the end, all shell be is your friend
Though passions your lone desire, shes the one you cant touch,
You want her so much, youre burnin, your hearts on fire
It takes a hard man to hold her, the challenge is forever on my mind
( * repeat)

Real Me
I know a girl who welcomes the world
I think though the world is spoiled
And she holds on to me
She holds my head up so that I can breathe
And Ive found that when Im on the ground
Shes the only one still sticking around
Only she knows the real me
And I know that she wont let me down
And I get mine
No way I could ever leave today
Cause she listens to the dumb things that I say
And I seem to get high
With just one smile as she walks on by
And I found that when Im on the ground
She is the only one sticking around
Only she knows the real me
And I know that she wont let me down
Theres only one girl in this world who understands the real me
Theres nothing superficial artificial
You get just what you see
I know a girl who takes up my world
Takes all of me and every breath that I hold
We meet and she makes me feel free
With one look she knows just what I need
And Ive found that shes got me bound
Cause shes the only one that my mind surrounds
Only she knows the real me
And I know that she wont let me down
I know a girl who wakes up my world
Brings in the warmth when Im feeling cold
And shes got places to be
But she says that she would rather stay here with me
And Ive found that when Im on the ground
Shes the only one sticking around
Only she knows the real me
And I know tht she wont let me down

And she cant get enough

But shes holding his heart
And she wont let go again

Well thats what they say
But she knows he couldnt love her

And she doesnt play straight
Just cruising around in her own sweet way
But shes taking her time
And hes gonna get fooled again
She learned about life
Til she wished shew were dead
So she treats that guy like a hole in the head
Can you see him now
Hell never get lucky again

She never slows down
And she cant get enough

She looks just great and she never slows down
And shes holding his heart and she wont let go again

Oh, shes holding his heart and she wont let go again
Yes, shes holding his heart and she wont let go again
Oh, shes holding his heart and she wont let go again

A Care In The World
shes a girl perfect and small
shes a girl no care in the world
shes a girl popular and sweet
shes a girl no where to turn
out all night
boys all over her
doesnt realise
that its not safe
shes a girl perfect and small
shes a girl no care in the world
shes a girl popular and sweet
shes a girl no where to turn
but one night
shes all alone
no where to turn
now she has a care in the world.

My Life/your World
They came this mornin with a dog on a chain
They came and took my little brother away
His generation never even got a name
My momma was a rocker way back in 53
Buys them old records that they sell on t.v.
I know chuck berry wasnt singin that to me
Mama,
Thats all right, its your world
Hey, this is my life
Shes my girl
My li fe / your world
I watch that fortune wheel
But never get to spin it
You made me promises, I dont think you meant it
If theres some sunshine baby
Im gonna get out in it, oh yeah
Mama,
Thats all right, its your wor ld
Hey, this is my life
Shes my girl
My life / your world
I tried to leave, but the traffic had been stopped
The beach was burnin, and someone was
Throwin rocks
They said an airplane had
Fallen in my block
Mama,
Thats all right, its your world
Hey, this is my life
Shes my girl

Silver Girl
She was a silver girl
Lost in a high tech world
She was a golden girl
Immersed in a hard core world
She would have preferred
The last generation
But thats all right
She is on her way
She had the midas touch
She was lady luck
Shes got a million bucks
And she looks like it
Shes had a few hard times
Sometimes it blows her mind
Those papers she never signed
Sometimes she remembers
Sometimes she was just an actress
But youll never really know
A shadow moves across her face
You cannot see her soul
Unless she lets you
See her soul
She was a girlie girl
Caught in a mans world
And as her world turns
She feels old so alone
Still shes a danger girl
Insane far beyond her years
On some things shes very clear
Shes a wild adventurer
Sometimes she was just an actress..

Vanishing Girl
Someones knocking in the distance
But Im deaf and blind
Shes not expected home this evening
So I leave the world behind
For the vanishing girl
The vanishing girl
Yes shed give you a twirl
But she vanishes from my world
So burn my letters and youd better leave
Just one pint a day
The whole streets talking about my
White shirts looking so grey
People gossip on the doorstep
Think they know the score
Shes giving him the runaround
The man from number four
Has a vanishing girl
A vanishing girl
Yes shed give you a twirl
But she vanishes from my world
Yes the paint is peeling and my
Garden is overgrown
I got no enthusiasm to even answer the phone
When shes here it makes up for the time shes
Not and its all forgotten
But when she goes Im putting on the pose for
The vanishing girl

Girl in my guitar
she comes to me every night into my dreams, .. the same as the night be-fore
dressed up she dances and sings all here words to me so presish and sweet
she is the one I adore...
i wake from the dream with her there laying sound asleep like the every night before
i know when she sleeps she can tell thats shes next to me as she pulls her self closer
inside of my arms
oh love you are my girl.....
forever you have my heart
for as long as were on this world...
you 'll be the girl in my guitar
no matter how long apart...
no matter just where you are....
your the best that i've had by far.....
ohhh the girl in my guitar.....
the girl in my guitar
(VERSE 2)
she lights up a room like a the the sun reflecting off the moon.. like a lantern that burns
inside
shes the furnace that warms all the cold that i 've felt before the feelings she create for
me it's so hard to hide
her sweet supple lips to her goosebump-giving fingertips keeps the spark that we share
alive..
her silk flowing hair to the sexy little things she wears...keeps me excited til the
moment she arrives
(CHORUS B)
ohh love you are my girl....
forever you have my heart.....
as long as were on this world, ..
you'll be the girl in my guitar...
no matter how long apart...
no matter where you are...
your the best that i've had by far....
ohhh the girl in my guitar...
the girl in my guitar
(VERSE 3)
the love that we share and the way that she shows she cares it's never been shown
before
like an angel above she has showered me with endless love shes my drug of choice
she keeps me coming back for more
i'll sing her her song as she lays there she'll sing along... with every word i say..
as two melt to one all my defenses all overcome for we'll be together forever never
been this sure
(CHORUS 3)
ohh love you are my girl....
forever you have my heart.....
as long as were on this world, ..
you'll be the girl in my guitar...
no matter how long apart...
no matter where you are...
your the best that i've had by far....

Living On The Edge Of The World
Early north jersey industrial skyline
Im an all-set cobra jet creepin through the night time
Gotta find a gas station, gotta find a pay phone
This turnpike sure is spooky at night when youre all alone
Im living on the edge of the world
Tryin to get my girl on the line
Livin on the edge of the world
But I think its just a waste of my time
Some jerk keeps breaking my connection, girl
cause Im living on the edge of the world
Living on the edge of the world
Radio, radio, hear my tale of heartbreak
New jersey in the morning like a lunar landscape
Got a counter girl at the exit 24 hojo
Down past the refinery towers where the great black river flows
Im living on the edge of the world
Tryin to get back to you, girl
Living on the edge of the world
Tryin to get a message through
I gotta make a connection, girl
Because Im living on the edge of the world
Living on the edge of the world
Radios jammed with gospel stations
Lost souls callin long distance salvation
Hey mister deejay gotta hear my last prayer
Its a hey ho rock and roll, deliver me from nowhere
Im living on the edge of the world
Tryin to get back to you, girl
Living on the edge of the world
Tryin to get a message through
I gotta make some connection, girl
Because Im living on the edge of the world
Living on the edge of the world
Now my boss dont dig me cause he put me on the night shift
It takes me two hours to get back to where my baby lives
In the wee wee hours my mind gets hazy
Relay towers, wont you lead me to my baby
neath the overpass the trooper hits his party lights switch
Good night, good luck, one, two powershift

Imaginary Diva
Late last night I had a dream
And it was then I seen her
She didnt need no diamond rings
Fancy cars, versace things to please her
Shes my perfect girl
And I call her my imaginary diva
Every girl she passes by
Just cant deny that they would love to be her
All the guys comparing sizes
Tucking shirts in, fixing ties to please her
Shes my perfect girl
Exclusive to my world
No you cant get her
Shes my imaginary diva
Shine on imaginary diva
Shine on into this world
Join us in our imagination
Help yourself believe in all you have heard
All you have to do is close your eyes
Forget real life and fantasies
Erase bad thoughts start to replace
Create your own amazing place
Shes a real time girl
In my imaginary world
Take a good look at her
Shes my imaginary diva
Shine on imaginary diva
Shine on into this world
Join us in our imagination
Help yourself believe in all you have heard
So listen up this so called classy ladys
Sipping fizz in vip bars
She could teach a thing or to
To you, your outfit, attitude and visa
Shes my imaginary diva
Shine on imaginary diva
Shine on into this world
Join us in our imagination
Help yourself believe in all you have heard

La femme accidents
Got everything you want
You never have to know
Shes hanging on your every word
She clings to your heart
She wont let you depart
Oh this mine
But shes with you all the time
Shes crying like a fragile child
But if you get to know her
Shes not a little girl
And if she gets to know you
You cant escape her world
La femme accident
A woman full of want
Her hearts on the line
You havent go the time
She suffers like some joan of arc
She says theres just no justice
In this world

Just use her and turn away

Sulky Girl
(robert palmer)
Go tell your sister about it
Go tell your brother the same
Bet theyll only look at you sideways
And call you insane
Dont tell your mama about it
She wont see the funny side
Shes only seen all her life
In terms of staying alive
Well you paint a picture
Of the whole wide world
But nobodys buyin from
(such a sulky girl)
She wants a new brand of make-up
She cant decide what to wear
Shes feels run down and
She cant do a thing with her hair
You kept me out of your payments
You got three things on the boil
You see the practice of fun
As an endless toil
Well you paint a picture
Of the whole wide world
But nobodys buyin from
Such a sulky girl
(such a sulky girl)
Nobody gives you no leeway
They sure got a lot to learn
If they wont give you no sympathy
Wait till its their turn
She enjoys messing her grievance
And so she pouts all day
She wont ever a smile past her lips
Until things go her way
Well you paint a picture
Of the whole wide world
But nobodys buyin from
Such a sulky girl

Nothin In The World Can Stop Me Worryin bout That Girl
Met a girl, fell in love, glad as I can be
Met a girl, fell in love, glad as I can be
But I think all the time, is she true to me?
cause theres nothing in this world to stop me worryin bout that girl
I found out I was wrong, she was just two timing
I found out I was wrong, she just kept on lying
Now she tries to tell the truth, and I just cant believe
cause theres nothing in this world to stop me worryin bout that girl
Tell me who can I turn to, just who can I believe?
Tried to put her out of my mind, shell only cause me grief
I love that girl, whatever shes done, you know it hurts me deeply
cause theres nothing in this world to stop me worryin bout that girl
I know shes been with other fellas, why does she keep on lying?
It hurts me so when she says nothing, I really feel like dying
I ache inside until I think[? ], I know its just my pride

Living In A World Without Her
My girl could break my heart
And tear my soul apart, but i
Couldnt see myself living in a world
Without her
Shes a tear, shes a scream
Takes me high, but my worst dream
Could I survive living in a world
Without her
As my mother said open the door
I didnt want to be that boy
All my friends told me Id pull through
But all thats said and all thats done
Wont persuade me that Im wrong
I know Id die living in a world
Without her
All my hopes and all my dreams
Rest with her, or so it seems
I never want to see the world
Without her
Shes a saint, shes a clown
Picks me up when Im down
Thered be so much missing from the world
Without her
Tangled up in falling vines
She took my hand, I know shes mine
Pickin up the pieces of the past
Well, I awoke before the dawn
Dreamed wed fought and she had gone
Now I know how it feels
Without her
An empty club, when we first met
Sharing our last cigarette
How could I have lived in a world
Without her
The sweetest girl I ever had
Shes the best, she must be mad
Theres no way I would live in a world
Without her
We walked four miles to get back home
Through the crowds we walked alone
She told me all about her last stand
The sun came up and lit the scene
She looked so fine, so I see
Theres no way Im living in a world
Without her
