Hold Back The Tears

Living at speed
It's so hard, turns a year to days
The things that I need
It's so sad, but they will always change

So when you call my name
And the answer's not the same
Hold back the tears
The tears

Oh, it's raining
Though water's pouring down my face
There's no complaining
We must find another place

So when you're on your own
And you can't even telephone
Hold back the tears

I see your faces
I'll never see them again
The only traces
A single colour, you're in a frame
In a frame

So when you're on your own
Remeber we're all alone
And hold back the tears

I Never Want To Love You In A Half Hearted Way

Times are hard and times will change
Things can never be the same
A love that's fallen, that makes no sense
It's better than indifference

I can't help all things I feel
But I don't need a compact seal
A love that's over, a love that's spent
I'll never be indifferent

Chorus:
I never want to love you in a half hearted way
Oh, oh, oh
(repeat)
I never want to love you in a half hearted way at all

So if I ever leave your hand
I know that you will understand
A love that's fallen that makes no sense
It's better than indifference
I never want to be that way

(chorus)

Ti Na Na

You're sending messages to me girl
I feel them flashed across the land
It's such that I can disbelieve girl
And what you feel is in my hand

Chorus:
Ti na na, Ti na na ne girl
Ti na na, Ti na na ne
Ti na na, Ti na na ne girl
Ti na na, Ti na na ne

It's cold outside, I can't breathe girl
Without a pain inside my heart
And if I should ever leave girl
And even then without a start

So I'm sitting by the fireside
Or on the beach or some hotel
And I feel like sitting down and crying
I sing the words I know so well

(chorus)

Straight From My Heart

We all need lovers
We all need girls
And there will be no other
In all the world

Chorus:
I got a feeling straight from my heart
I got a feeling straight from my
Straight from my heart
Straight from my heart
Straight from my....

We all need airplanes
We all need cars
Because there's no other way babe,
From here to Mars

(chorus)

Dancing

Dancing in the street love
Dancing in your hair
They'll never know
That you dance until you go
And then you're down

Dancing in your heart love
Dancing in the sea
They'll never say
That you danced your life away
And now you're down

Dancing, Oh

China

China, China, on the sea shore
China, China, on the dance floor
China, China, I must have seen your face before

I've been to Cairo and I've been to Khartoum
I've seen them places from my rented room
I've been to Paris and I've been to Marseille
But that was nothing till I got to Cathay

I've been to New York and I've been to L.A.
I've been to Delhi and I've been to Bombay
I've been to Venice and I've been to Rome
But now it's Peking that I think of as home

China, China, on the sea shore
China, China, on the dance floor
China, China, there's no finer place on earth

China, China, I must have seen your face before

Rising In The East

Simple scenes that I've never seen
A hole in my living, a kind of in-between
A geisha girl, a hard won world
A wall that divides us from an Eastern spell

So we're rising in the East

I've seen America, America
Where they're so tired of living, they don't walk alone
And my Europeans, just do what they're told to do
That means me and you, me and you

So we're rising in the East
That's why we're rising in the East

Chinese Girls

A star is shining
Into my eyes
It will not fall
A star is wise
Across the harbor
Perfumed hills
The silent waters
And all is still
Oh yeah

Chinese girls stand, see right through you
Chinese girls can sway
Chinese girls will melt your heart
And take your breath away
Chinese girls would dance with God
Chinese girls don't care
Put their hands around their heads
And through their Chinese hair

She is not moving
She does not talk
Birds in her hair
Where she walks
And when she gazes
There's a pearl
I will not forget
My Chinese girl

Why Do You Laugh

It's good to have a good time
It's good to let your feelings be known
It's good to go out dancing
And it's good to have your people back home
The fashions, oh they're way out babe
I love the colour of your hair
Darling can we go now, oh no
I don't think that you care

Why do you laugh
When everybody's crying
Why do you laugh
When everybody's crying
Why do you, Why do you
Oh why?
Is it just that you don't notice
Is it so long since a tear passed your eye?

As your light is gone I'm gone
I seem to get me nowhere
The boys that try to raise a laugh
But there's nothing to smile about down there
And all the faces you're so bored
I know you've heard it all before
But what frightened me is all those people
What they want is more and more

I Can't Sleep

From my window I can see the skylight
And the clouds gathering out to sea
A light rain falls
And the street lights make the road shine

And I can't sleep
People talking about the war
I can't sleep
People talking about the war
I can't sleep

Over there a clock shows half past four
And the light breaks out to sea
And I just think of those things your said to me
And I said to you and you said to me
