INVISIBLE TOUCH
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Well I've been waiting, waiting here for so long
But thinking nothing, nothing could go wrong, ooh now I know
She has a built in ability 
To take everything she sees
And now it seems I'm falling, falling for her

She seems to have an invisible touch yeah
She reaches in and grabs right hold of your heart
She seems to have an invisible touch yeah
It takes control and slowly tears you apart

Well I don't really know her, I only know her name
But she crawls under your skin, you're never quite the same, and now I
know
She's got something you just can't trust
It's something mysterious
And now it seems I'm falling, falling for her

She seems to have an invisible touch yeah
She reaches in and grabs right hold of your heart
She seems to have an invisible touch yea
It takes control and slowly tears you apart

She don't like losing, to her it's still a game
And though she will mess up your life, 
You'll want her just the same, and now I know
She has a built in ability
To take everything she sees
And now it seems I've fallen, fallen for her

She seems to have an invisible touch yeah
She reaches in, and grabes right hold of your heart
She seems to have an invisible touch yeah
It takes control and slowly tears you apart

She seems to have an invisible touch ...

TONIGHT, TONIGHT, TONIGHT
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm coming down, coming down like a monkey, but it's alright
Liek a load on your back that you can't see, ooh but it's alright
Try to shake it loose, cut it free, just let it go, get it awa from me

Cos tonight, tonight, tonight - oh, I'm gonna make it right
Tonight, tonight, tonight - oh

I'm going down, going down like a monkey, ooh but it's alright
Try to pick yourself up, carry that weight that you can't see
Don't you know it's alright
It's like a helter skelter, going down and down, and round and round
But just get it away from me - oh

Because tonight, tonight, tonight - oh
We're gonna make it right
Tonight, tonight, tonight - oh

I got some money in my pocket, about ready to burn
I don't remember where I got it, I gotta get it to you
So please answer the phone, cos I keep calling, but you're never home
What am I gonna do
Tonight, tonight, tonight - oh
I'm gonna make it right
Tonight, tonight, tonight - oh

You keep telling me I'm everything, you say I've got everything I want
You keep telling me you're gonna help me, you're gonna help me, but you
don't
And now I'm in too deep
You see it's got me so that I just can't sleep
Oh get me out of here, please get me out of her
Just help me I'll do anything, anything,
Get me out of here

I'm coming down, coming down like a monkey, but it's alright
It's like a load on your back that you can't see
Ooh don't you know that it's alright
Just try to shake it loose, cut it free, let it go
But just get it away from me
Cos tonight, tonight, tonight - oh
Maybe we'll make it right
Tonight, tonight, tonight - oh

Please get me out of here
Someone get me out of here
Just help me I'll do anything, anything
If you'll just help get me out of here
Tonight - oh, I'm gonna make it right
Tonight, tonight, tonight - oh

Yes tonight, tonight, tonight - oh
Yes I'm gonna make it right, tonight, tonight, tonight - oh...

LAND OF CONFUSION
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I must've dreamed a thousand dreams
Been haunted by a million screams
But I can hear the marching feet
They're moving into the street

Now did you read the news today
They say the danger's gone away
But I can see the fire's still alight
There burning into the night

There's too many men
Too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go round
Can't you see
This is a land of confusion

This is the world we live in (oh)
And these are the hands we're given (oh)
Use them and let's start trying (oh
To make it a place worth living in

Ooh Superman where are you now
Seems everythings going wrong somehow
The men of steel, the men of power
Are losing control by the hour

This is the time
This is tye place
So we look for the future
But there's not much love to go round
Tell me why, this is a land of confusion

This is the world we live in (oh)
These are the hands we're given (oh)
Use them and lets start trying (oh)
To make this a place worht living in

I remember long ago -
Ooh when the sun was shining
Ooh and the stars were bright
All through the night
And the sound of your laughter
As I held you tight 
So long ago -

I won't be coming home tonight
My generation will put it right
We're not just making promises
That we know, we'll never keep

Too many men, 
There's too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go round
Can't you see
This is a land of confusion

Now this is the world we live in (oh)
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and lets start trying
to make it a place worth fighting for

This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and lets start showing
Just where our lives are going to
