In The Midnight Hour

I´m gonna wait till the midnight hour
That´s when my love comes tumbling down
I´m gonna wait till the midnight hour
When there´s no one else around
I´m gonna take you girl and hold you
And do all the things I told you
In the midnight hour

I´m gonna wait till the stars come out
And see that twinkle in your eye
I´m gonna wait till the midnight hour
That´s when my love begins to shine
I´m gonna take you girl and hold you
And do all things I told you
In the midnight hour

Oh Yeah

Some expression in your eyes
Overtook me by surprise
Where was I how was I to know?
How can we drive to a movie show
When the music is here in my car
There´s a band playing on the radio
With a rhythm of rhyming guitars
They playing Oh Yeah on the radio

And so came to be our song
And so on through all summer long
Day and night drifting into love
Driving you home from a movie show
So in tune to the sounds in my car
There´s a band playing on the radio
With a rhythm of rhyming guitars
They playing Oh Yeah on the radio

It´s some time since we said goodbye
And now we lead our separate lives
But where am I where can I go?
Driving alone to a movie show
So I turn to the sounds in my car
There´s a band playing on the radio
With a rhythm of rhyming guitars
There´s a band playing on the radio

And it´s drowning the sound of my tears
They´re playing Oh Yeah on the radio

Same Old Scene

Nothings last forever
Of that I´m sure
Now you´ve made an offer
I´ll take some more
Young loving may me
Oh so mean
Will I still survive
The same old scene?

In our lighter moments
precious few
It´s all that heavy weather
We´re going through
When I turn the corner
I can´t believe
It´s still the same old movie
That´s haunting me

Young loving may be
Oh so mean
Trying to revive
The same old scene
Young loving may be
So extreme
Maybe we should try
The same old scene

Flesh And Blood

My friend´s flesh and blood
She lies overtime
You´d nail her if you could
But she says
Love me for my mind
In my time
I´m not that kind

My friend´s flesh and blood
Night size - perfect ten
So rude - she´s no good
But as she says
It pays to win
Play to win
She plays to win

My friend´s flesh and blood
Street wise for her time
You´d nail her if you could
But she says
Love me for my mind
In my time

My Only Love

Do I ever wonder?
More than words can say
Heaven knows it´s hard enough to pray
Let me tell you something
There´s a change in me
Even now you´re gone you´ll always be
My only love

Does it seem so funny
For a fool to cry?
Do you know the meaning of goodbye?
There´s a river flowing
By a willow tree
When you need to know remember me
My only love

Let me tell you something
More than words can say
But they´re all I have, no other way
There´s a river flowing
By a willow tree
When you find you´re there remember me
My only love

Over You

Oh baby this is nowhere
Wish I was somewhere - over you
Your sweet lips tell me there´s no chance
No more romance - over you

Oh baby how can I go on?
Crying so long - over you
Where strangers look for new love
I´m so lost in love - over you

Some day yes it might come babe
When I´ll be babe - over you
And always up to that moment
I will try to say I´m - over you

Eight Miles High

Eight miles high
And when you touch down
You find you´re
Stranger than known
Signs in the street
That say where you´re going
Are somewhere

Just being their own

Nowhere is there
Warmth to be found
Just those afraid
Of losing their ground
Rain grey town
Known for its sound
In places
Small faces around
Round the squares
Huddled in storms

Some laughing
Some just shapeless forms
Sidewalk scenes
And black limousines
Some living
Some standing
Alone

Rain Rain Rain

You better take what´s left
´Cos I´m feeling rough
In dread of the night getting high
And name on the dress
Stretch far too long
But it pleases the mind
And that´s nice

Rain rain rain

She put her head on the line
When she come strong
A single girl about town
And she stands or fall
By the way she moves
Ahead of her time
She can´t lose

Rain rain rain

You got trouble in mind
Gets deep ´n´ worse
Oh please don´t stop getting high
You got lust for life
It don´t seem to die
Gonna last for ever
Getting high

Rain rain rain

No Strange Delight

So there goes your life
Disappeared from ever loving friends
And now a slave to obsession
Your strange delight
You lie awake
How your senses ache
Shaking off the night
Is there more strange delight?

There goes your self
In the clear forever out of line
And there you´ll stay through obsession
Your strange delight
Can´t bear this heat
You poor heart skips a beat
Tearing off the years
To when you really cared

So where´s your soul?
In the field where every story ends
And then how plain your obsession
Your strange delight
So this is hell
Not so hard to tell
Better men than I
Have tried your strange delight
Is there no strange delight?

Running Wild

There´s that melody again
Burning through my head it does me in
Turns me right around to my old friend
Wonder how you´ve changed, are you still

Running wild - like you do
When all you dreams come true
Happy days you pretend
That your love will never end

There´s that melody again
Where it´s coming from I must have been
Drifting out of time, now I´m in
Underneath you´ll find I´m just the same

Running wild - like you do
When all your dreams fall through
I can always pretend
That I´ll fall in love again

Running wild - like we do
If only dream came true
I could even pretend
That I´ll fall in love again
