Behind The Lines
(banks/collins/rutherford)
I held the book so tightly in my hands,
I saw your picture, heard you call my name
It was strange I could not look away
I had to be there, I wanted to go
You gave me no reason
You gave me no warning
But I was with you,
By your side
Give me the strength, so I can help you
And I can be strong now, they dont frighten me
Its written in the book
The sun is hotter than before
But inside its cold, I wonder why
But if the fire within your heart can beat the storm
Well I believe we can make it right
Its time now
To show our feelings
Looking through you
Your hearts empty
Whatever happened to you, you cant change it,
Nowhere to run to, please, oh please dont let me down
But wait a minute I dont understand
Its getting stronger, hold my hand
Dont want to leave you I dont want to go
But Im a losing all control
Cant you see me Im slipping away
I can only stay if youve the will to keep me here
Oh lord
Its written in the book
I held the book so tightly in my hands
Saw your picture, heard you call my name
Oh, and even though we never, never touched
I keep waiting for you just the same
La la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la...

Behind The Lines
I held the book so tightly in my hands,
I saw your picture, heard you call my name
There was something strange, I could not look away
I wanted to be there, I wanted to go
You gave me no warning
You gave no reason
But I was with you
Right by your side
Just give me the strength, and I will help you
And they can try their hardest, cos they dont frighten me
It is written in the book
It is hotter than Ive known before, but I feel so cold, and I dont
Know why
But if the fire within your heart can beat the storm
Then I really believe, you could make it right
Ooh the time has come now
We must show our feelings
But Im looking right through you
And your heart is empty
Whatever happened to you its too late to change now
Theres nowhere you can run to, no place to hide
Ah you let me down!
...but wait a minute, I dont understand
Its getting stronger, so grab my hand
Dont wanna leave you, dont wanna go
But Im losing all control
Cant you see me? Im slipping away
I can only stay if youve the will to keep me here
It is written in the book
Oh so many times since Ive read those words
Just waiting to see you, can you see me?

Why Dont You Read The Book
Dont talk to the pilot
When hes flyin
Dont smile at the soldier
Hes on parade
Dont come creeping round, youll
Catch me cryin
No more talkin bout it
Its all been said
You drawn such a fine line baby
Learnin all the rules
Why dont ya read between them sometimes
You wont look such a fool
Why dont you read the book, why dont you read the book
Why dont you read the book, why dont you read the book
Why show all your aces
To the gambler
If he calls your hand
Youre gonna lose
Dont trust first impressions
Of a stranger
Private informations
Just tellin tales
* you draw such a fine line baby
Learnin all the rules
Why dont ya read between them sometimes
You wont look such a fool
** why dont you read the book, why dont you read the book
Why dont you read the book, why dont you read the book
Repeat *

Revelation
Written by bob welch.
He had all the rivers, under his power
He had all the mountains, under his command
You know that he had all the cities, in his own two hands
Yes and he had control of the four winds
And of the hunger of starving man
And now were passing on the reins
Cause in my heart I can feel the change
You know the lord of light is laughing
Cause things dont stay the same, revelation
Revelation
He controlled the brimstone, and eternal fire
Surrounds himself with downers, in the king of cold
You know that he had all the princes kissing his diamond ring
And I heard that he walled up, the door to summer
And cut the heart out of mister spring
And now were passing on the reins
And in your heart you can feel a change
You know the lord of light is laughing
Cause things dont stay the same, revelation
Revelation
Dream on, keep your eyes wide open...
On a sunday morning, with a voice thats cold
The future gives a warning of the fire that burns below
He puts his hands together, cause his faith is strong
And thats what youve been needing
Oh but it dont seem to last too long
Cause now were passing on the reins
And in your heart you can feel a change
You know the lord of light is laughing
Cause things dont stay the same, revelation
Revelation

Not You Again
Oh, no, not you again
Please dont tell me
Youre here to stay
See I dont want to hear
Go away, go away
I like piano
I like to tv
Yeah I like my style, ya know, and I like to dream
I like color of the rainbow, they like to please me
But I dont like you, I dont like you, I dont like you
Ive told you before and Ill tell you again, and again, and again
Cant you get it thru your head
Youre not my friend
And Ive tried to be nice but now Im not going to lie
So I suggest you leave before I make you cry, bye
I like to be sulky
I like being vile
I like to make you angry, I like it all the while
I like to know that youre hated, it makes me smile
But I dont like you, I dont like you, I dont like you
Oh, no, not you again
Oh, no, not you again
Why, why, why, why me?
Why, why, why, why me?
I like where Im living
I like my view
I like anyone who detests you as I do
So I must find everyone including me too
cause I dont like you, I dont like you, I dont like you
Im sorry
Oh, no, not you again
Oh, no, not you again
I dont like, I dont like, I dont like, I dont like, I dont like you
I dont like, I dont like, I dont like you
Oh, no, not you again
I dont like, I dont like, I dont like, I dont like, I dont like you
I dont like, I dont like, I dont like you
I dont have to give a reason
I dont have to give a reason, if I dont want to
Hello? I said hello.

Love Is Like Clock Law
This heart is empty
Ive barely hidden memories
Ive found a picture that haunts me again
Ive no sad expression
Ive no tears in my eyes
But I am the clown who forgot how to laugh
I wonder, does she think of me?
I wonder, I wonder
I wonder, does she call my name?
I cried
Dont leave me here alone
I cried
Dont leave me, dont leave me
Love is like clock law
Tick tock my heartbeat
I was a passion that passed her spare time
This room is prison
Love doesnt come here
These quiet nights will slowly kill me
I wonder, does she think of me?
I wonder, I wonder
I wonder, does she call my name
I cried
Dont leave me here alone
I cried
Dont leave me here alone
I cried
Dont leave me, dont leave me
Dont leave me, dont leave me
I cried
Dont leave me, dont leave me here
Im quite alone

He Dont Know
He took your love
But its still mine
He took all the things that I loved best
But you still aint got happiness
Gave you everything girl money can buy
Hes a real big spender and a generous guy
You gave up on me, cant understand
Deep down inside girl, Im still the man
Chorus
(he dont know what to do for you) he dont know
(he dont know what to do for you) he dont know
(he dont know what to do for you) but I do
You know I do....yeah
I passed your house today
I took it real hard
There was a brand new mercedes
Parked right in front of your yard
He buys you things from a to z
But no one, no one can satisfy you like me
(he dont know what to do for you) he dont know
(he dont know what to do for you) he dont know like I know
(he dont know what to do for you) but I do
You know I do
You had the world
But you wanted more
But nothin can be better than what you had before
But you still got a chance to let him go
Gave you all of the best love
One man can give (check it out)
Girl, youre gonna feel it
Just as long as I live
Gave you all the love he could
But dont you know that
I spoiled you too good
(he dont know what to do for you) he dont know
(he dont know what to do for you) he will never know
(he dont know what to do for you) and I do
You know I do
(he dont know what to do for you) he dont know what to do
(he dont know what to do for you) for a girl like you
(he dont know what to do for you) he will never know
Never never know like I know..

Dont Stand So Close To Me
Young teacher, the subject
Of schoolgirl fantasy
She wants him so badly
Knows what she wants to be
Inside her theres longing
This girls an open page
Book marking - shes so close now
This girl is half his age
Dont stand, dont stand so
Dont stand so close to me
Her friends are so jealous
You know how bad girls get
Sometimes its not so easy
To be the teachers pet
Temptation, frustration
So bad it makes him cry
Wet bus stop, shes waiting
His car is warm and dry
Dont stand, dont stand so
Dont stand so close to me
Loose talk in the classroom
To hurt they try and try
Strong words in the staffroom
The accusations fly
Its no use, he sees her
He starts to shake and cough
Just like the old man in
That book by nabakov
Dont stand, dont stand so
Dont stand so close to me
Dont stand, dont stand so
Dont stand so close to me

Young Heart
Im a hero in a book
Im a picture on your wall
Im on the tv
Im arrogant, seen it all
Im a distraction
Like a hideous new disease
Im in the papers
But thats not really me
Young heart
Give me something I can do
Im a decision
Im a morning filled with shame
Im a perversion
But I dont know its name
In a car
On the floor
Up against the wall
With a friend or two
Someone to watch it all
Young heart
Everyone does it here
Young heart
Does your mother know what youve seen?
Young heart
Everyone does it here
Young heart
Does your mother know where youve been?
What are you gonna do?
What are you gonna do now?
I dont believe in it
I dont believe in it
What are you gonna say?
What are you gonna say now?
I dont believe in it
I dont believe in it
What are you gonna feel?
What are you gonna feel now?
I dont believe in it
I dont believe in it
Where are you gonna go?
Where are you gonna go now?
I dont believe in it

Young heart, like you
Young heart like you

Im not the pain
Im not surprised
And Im certainly not ashamed
I want your number
I want your name
I wont remember

Cant Stay Away From You
Time flies
When youre having fun
I heard somebody say
But if all Ive been is fun
Then baby let me go
Dont wanna be in your way
And I dont wanna be your second choice
Dont wanna be just your friend
You keep telling me that youre not in love
You wanna throw it all away
But I cant stay away form you
I dont wanna let you go
And though its killing me thats true
Theres just some things I cant control
Your love is slipping through my hands
And though Ive heard it all before
I know youre telling me the truth
I know its just no use
But I cant stay away from you
Hold on to every bit of hope, thats all I ever do
Hoping you might change your mind
And call me up to say how much you need me too
And though youre leaving me no other choice
Than to turn and walk away
Look over your shoulder, Ill be there
You can count on me to stay ...
cause I cant stay away from you
I dont wanna let you go
And though its killing me thats true
Theres just some things I cant control
Your love slipping through my hands
And though Ive heard it all before
I know youre telling me the truth
I know its just no use
But I cant stay away from you
I know youre telling me the truth
I know its just no use
But I cant stay away from you

Like China
My mom and daddy both say
I must be crazy to be this infatuated
But I know you know
We got something special never felt before
You get me going just looking at you
And the feelings not hard to recognise so
Alright Ill come out in the open with it
Will you walk out with me.
Cos youre the first girl Ive ever loved
Tell me do you feel the same way
Well Ill show you Im not like all the rest
Cos I know who I am
Your skin is smooth as silk and your eyes like stars
Youre just like a picture book standing there
But I cant go on
No, I cant go on thinking you dont feel the same way that I do
Ill be so careful Ill hold you like china
Ill promise not to hurt you Ill hold you like china
You wont feel nothing, Ill hold you like china
cos I know its your first time
Your mum and dad dont like me
And they tell me every time I call around to see you
I dont know why
Cos I always straighten my tie and comb my hair
I know your brother thinks that
Im a limp wristed wimp from the other side of town
I know hes got me wrong
Because Im really not like that, Ill tell you why
Youre the first girl Ive ever loved
Tell me do you feel the same way
Well Ill show you Im not like all the rest
cos I know who I am
I remember the very first time I held your hand
And that was the last time you were so close to me
But I cant go on
No, I cant go on thinking you dont feel the same way as I do
Ill be so careful Ill hold you like china
Ill promise not to hurt you Ill hold you like china
You wont feel nothing, Ill hold you like china
cos I know its your first time
I know you know and now I want to, I want to tell everybody
I know you know and now I want them all to see...

Game Show
Cuttin pictures from a magazine
... paper smile but not from you to me
Another statue in a ?
A breakfast alone
Another compromising ?
Another game show
The game show
The game show
I pass the time away before I sleep
I have your picture sitting next to me
I taped your picture in a book
Dont bother reading I just take a look
Dont have to turn the page before I know
So full of answers I dont need to know
I like to take control
I like the game show
The game show
The game show
Dont have to turn the page before I know
You ask me questions I already know
The time has finally come to let it go
I like to take control
I like the game show
The game show

Dont Ya Say It
Things you said to me
Sentimentally
Are always on my mind.
Seems you haunted me
But you set me free
Long before you gave me time to escape.
The next time
Ill be on my way
cause its time, its true
Im turning my back on you.
Dont ya say it,
Dont say you need me
You dont need me,
Dont even try.
Dont ya say it,
Dont say you want me,
You dont mean it,
Dont say good-bye.
You threw love at me
Indispensably,
But you never could give it away.
And it seems to me
That youd never be,
Thats why Ill never stay with you.
You cant hold me down
cause its my life too,
So this time its true,
Im turning my back on you
.
Dont ya say it,
Dont say you want me,
You dont mean it,
Dont even try.
Dont ya say it,
Dont say you need me,
You dont mean it,
Dont say good-bye.
Dont ya say it,
Dont say you need me,
You dont need me,
Dont even try.
Dont ya say it,
Dont say you want me,
You dont mean it,
Dont say good-bye.

Dont Tell Me
(graham russell, michael sherwood, jimmy haun)
You were late last night, the candle burned so low
And in my darkest hour I knew you had to go
Did he hold you like I held you once before
Is there someone else that loves you even more
Dont tell me
Standing face to face the words just fall away
But in my loneliness I knew just what to say
Did he touch you where I touched you long ago
Please dont answer, I dont really want to know
So dont tell me
Dont tell me
Dont tell me
Dont tell me
Dont tell me
I have no more to give you
I have no room to share
I know the road I follow going nowhere
Dont tell me
Dont tell me
Dont tell me
Should I close my eyes and say Im giving up
Can we compromise the darker side of love
Did he hold you like I held you once before
Since I lost your love I need you even more
Dont tell me lies
I have no more to give you
I have no room to share
I know the road I follow going nowhere
Dont tell me
Dont tell me
Dont tell me
Dont tell me
Dont tell me

I Dont Want To See You Again
(jackson leap)
I dont want to see you
cause I dont want to feel you
Dont look so surprised
I told you that Id say good-bye
If you couldnt just make up your mind
You keep saying love can wait
But I cant and its too late
This old heart has just run out of time
I dont want to see you
cause I dont want to feel you
I dont want a love that I cant win baby
I dont want you to call
cause if I cant have it all
I dont want to see you again
When your new life gets you down
Dont be tempted to come around
Just think of all the times I let you slide
And when your teardrops finally come
Youll realize that Im the one
But I wont be there when its your turn to cry
I dont want to see you
cause I dont want to feel you
I dont want a love that I cant win baby
I dont want you to call
cause if I cant have it all
I dont want to see you
I dont want to see you
I dont want to feel you
I dont want a love that I cant win baby
I dont want you to call

Last Love Song
If you dont love me
Please dont treat me this way
Cause I cant stand it
I see our love slipping away
Did you think you could just put me down
Like a worn out shoe
Cause if you dont want me
Maybe I dont want you
If you dont need me
Dont leave me out in the cold
Eyes drifting by me
Like somebody you dont know
Did you think that you could just walk away
Anytime you wanted to
Cause if you dont love me
Maybe I dont love you
Did you think that you could just put me down
For somebody new
Cause nobody can love you girl like I do
Every little bird in the sky
Would sing a song of love
If you would just take me back
Come on open up your heart again
Let me in baby baby
If you dont love me
Stop fooling yourself
No more acting
I know your show too well
Did you think that you could just shake my hand
With a how dydo
Cause if you dont want me
Maybe I dont want you
Oh and as you go through life
Its the little things that come back again
If you came back again
You know Id give my loving to you

Dont You
I could tear your walls down as I chip at who you are now
Dont you
You ever let me know how
And I could break your heart down as I tell you that youve burned out
Dont you
You want to let it go
Oh, I might scream and shout now as I feel you pressing down on
Dont you
You walk upon my heels now
You walk on
And I should call your soul out but I feel Ive gained control now
Dont you
You tell me what to do as you
You twist and turn your thoughts around
Oh, this road its getting long
Stones, dont you
Theyre getting harder and youre slipping slowly further
Youre slipping slowly further
Youre slipping further than youve been before
But I dont need to know how
And I dont need to blow out your candle
Its only burning at both ends
But your moods they wash away
No need to dose your eyes today
You just take your
Your deeper breath youre going
Your deeper breath youre going
Under this time
Its under this time
You, youve got to go now
Wont you, youve got to go not
And dont you, you know it
Dont you, you know it
Youve got to go now
Dont you, youve gotta go now

I Dont Fall In Love So Easy
(written by rodney crowell)
I dont fall in love so easy
I dont even know how it feels
I dont fall in love so easy
I dont even know if its real
Too strong dont mean its for long
Too deep dont mean its for keeps
Fast doesnt last
I dont fall in love so easy
But Im fallin in love with you
I dont give my heart to just anyone
I dont even know how to do it
I dont give my hand to just any man
I dont wanna put myself through it
I dont want what I dont want
I cant feel what I dont feel
Its sad but its true
I dont fall in love so easy
But Im fallin in love with you
I used to pray someday to change
But I found new ways to stay the same
Until you came
I dont fall in love so easy
I dont even know where to start
I dont fall in love so easy
I dont understand my own heart
Its so hard to drop my guard
I dont know how to just let go
But what else can I do
I dont fall in love so easy
But Im fallin in love with you
Im fallin in love with you
Yes, Im fallin in love with you

You Dont Understand Me
Ive been up all night, youve been puttin up a fight.
Seems like nothin I say gets through.
How did this old bed fit a world between me and you.
We said goodnight but the silence was so thick
You could cut it with a knife.
Weve hit the wall again and theres nothin I can do.
Youre the one, yea, Ive put all my trust in your hands.
Cmon and look in my eyes, here I am, here I am
You dont understand me, my baby.
You dont seem to know that I need you so much.
You dont understand me, my feelings,
The reason Im breathin, my love
The mornin comes and youre reaching out for me
Just like everythings the same
And I let myself believe things are gonna change.
When you kiss my mouth and you hold my body close,
Do you wonder whos inside?
Maybe theres no way we could feel each others pain.
Tell me why it gets harder to know where I stand.
I guess loneliness found a new friend, here I am
You dont understand me...
You dont seem to get me, my baby.
You dont really see that I live for your touch.
You dont understand me, my dreams or the things I believe in, my love.
You dont understand me. you dont understand me. understand me.
