High Wire
 
Standin' here. I got my eye on you
you sort of please but there's no review
On a trip and set my soul on fire
Stealin' hearts, got me walkin' a wire
*You're gonna lose control
All night long
When I find my love, love, love
High wire
Life's a smile on your shiny plate.
Everyone laughing, she got it made
Sorry, child, can you take mer
But you keep me hangin'
On your lonely wire
(* Repeat)
Oh feels so good
You give me lovin' like no one could
You turn me, child, inside out
Still you leave me drownin'
In a sea of doubt
You're gonna lose control
All night long
You're gonna steal my soul, mama
You can't go wrong
When I find my love, love, love
High wire
Love, love, love
Oh, sweet child
I know where you come from now
High wire, baby. oh no
 
Dreams In The Dark
I remember you, baby
Like a sweet summer song
Said you'd love me forever
Nothing could ever go wrong
Time's gone by
I'm just a memory scarred
I'm lost in a shadow
Don't know where you are
'Cause yesterday's gone
Dreams carry on
Will you return my way, no
Sing me a sweet, sweet Song
Turn out the lights
And my love will burn on and On
Hold me until tomorrow
Dreams in the dark
Dreams in the dark
You pushed me, baby
A little too far
Turned your back on my lovin'
Lick my wounds in the bars
Story's been told
And a lesson is learned
I know where your love lies
And I know where you've gone
'Cause yesterday's gone
Dreams carry on
Will you return my way. no
(* Repeat)
Baby, I know that you're leavin
it's over, it's over, I know
Now that My heart now is bleedin'
Don't know which way to turn
Run home!
(* Repeat 2 times)
Dreams in the dark
Dreams in the dark
 
WINTER'S CALL
Falling leaves have changed their color
Winter's on its way
I'm lookin' for the sunny part of town
And even now
I hear the wicked cold winds call me
They say my don't fly away
Drink the...
Feel the heat front a fire's blaze
You take a long walk
In those lonely winter days
You hear her cry cut in the cold
Baby, hold me, hold me
Don't fly away
Winter's cold winds call me
Gonna leave it all behind
Summer breezes fill my mind
Fill my mind, oh yes they do now
*Winter's cold winds call me
Gonna leave it all behind
Summer breezes fill my mind
(They) Fill my mind,
All your love
Is what I need from you
All your love
Is gonna keep me warm
Through the winter storm
I give it to you, baby
You give it to me now, mama
Repeat (*)
Give it to you, baby
All your love
Oh...
All your love
Is what I need from you
All your love
Is gonna keep me warm, so warm
All your love
Is what I need from you
All your love
Is gonna keep me warm
Through the winter storm
I give it to you, baby
You give it to me now, mama
I give to you, baby
You give it to me now, baby
I need it from you now, baby
Give it to me now, mama
All your love, all your love
Give it to me now, baby
Give it to you now, mama
All your love, all your love
All your love, all your love...
 
Dancing on The Edge
Living on a...
It's the season and I'm insane
Living on a... crazy scene
Laughing through the morning sunshine
Rolling in the rain
Is alI need, is all I need
Ridin' on the Wings of thunder
Blinded by a bolt of Light
I'm rollin' like a river full of hunger
Oh I'm dancing on the edge tonight
Now mama says it's all right
But I'm leavin' it all behind
If mama says It's all right
It's a fine with me
Runnin' through a distant thunder
In a summer's rain
Is all I need, is all I need
(* Repeat)
Living on a...
It's the season and I'm insane
Living on a... crazy scene
I'm never never
Never lookin' back in my time
Gotta keep on movin'
Do you know what I mean
You know what I mean
Ridin' on the Wings of thunder
Blinded by a bolt of Light
I'm rollin' like a river full of hunger
Oh
 
Streets Cry Freedom
in the coldness of the city
Where the neon sleeps
And the streets show the pity
And the nights run deep
And every shadow seems to hold
A hidden story
Every heart, oh is a refugee
And the old ones hope
And the lost ones scream
The hustlers float
And the young ones dream In the city
Livin' in the soul of the city
And the streets cry freedom
Do you stand or retreat
As you swear by the neon gods above
While you bask in the heat
And the streets cry freedom
And the blood runs cold
As you stare into the eyes
Of the walking ghosts
Who've lost their souls
In the summer's heat of worry
In the soul of the city
The tension's burning bright
In the Harlem halls
Have you ever lived
Looking down a shotgun barrel
When they said, 'Hey boy This ain't your home'
There ain't no cure
For the bleeding heart
'Cause when you fall
There's no second start in the city
There'll always be the soul of the city
And the streets cry freedom
As it burns in the heat
You swear by the neon gods above
While you bask in the heat
And the streets cry freedom
As the blood runs cold
You stare into the eyes
Of the walking ghosts
Who've lost their souls
There is no reason For livin'
in sin I don't believe when they say.'Hey boy'
You better give in
You know I'll fight for what I know
Till the day that I die 'Cause I'm better off dead
And buried along with my pride
And the streets cry freedom
Till the day that I die, yeah
Till the day that I die
And the streets Cry freedom
Till the day that I die, yeah
Till the day that I die, yeah
Till the day that I die
Till the day that I die Die, die, die, die, oh
The streets cry freedom Such a fallen cry
Till the day that I die (Repeat)
 
Hard Driver
Starin' at the highway lines
Is a fever, that I know,
Tonight my burning bridges
Light the skies
The engine scream for murder
And tonight we're gonna bleed
Pushin' the limit through
On a red light rocket ride
The wheels are fire
But A's all right, all right
They're gonna bum for me tonight
*Hard driver, ridin' alone
'Cause there's no lookin' back
And you're never comin' home
Hard driver. you're on your own,
Give it all, hard driver
Turn the ship into the wind
Let the engines roar
Curse the gods
And let the metal cry
The eyes of total madness
Are the windows to the soul
You'd be a fool to stop
On the edge of lost control
The wheels are fire
But it's all right, all right
They're gonna bum for me tonight
(* Repeat 2 times)
Give it all, hard driver
And there's no lookin' back
'Cause you're never comin' home
 
Rumblin' Train
I'm just a poor boy
Scratch my back on a razor's edge
This razor's edge I call my home
I keep my thoughts inside myself
Down where they're born and bled
I'll probably die by the fire a I breathe
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I said
*Even my mind! is crazy, boy
It's a runaway train
No one's gonna steal my soul
I'll bite the bullet no more
Evern my heart is crazy, boy
It's a rumblin' train
Look out, babe, 'cause here I come
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Rumblin' train, train
The devil's river's runnin'
Wild in my veins
It kills my mind but feeds my soul
Every night a dirty lady
In a different bed
I keep on playin' those hard on games
But I got more in my head
(* Repeat)
Yeah, yeah, yeah. yeah, rumblin' train
rumblin' bad boy, bad boy on the line
Rumblin' train, rumblin' train Train. train, train, train
Look out! Duck!
rumblin' train rumblin' bad boy. bad boy
on the line
Rumblin' train Rumblin' bad boy,
always on the line All right
Crazy boy is a rumblin' train
Crazy boy is a runaway train
Crazy boy's on the bullet ride tonight
Crazy boy is a rumblin' train
Crazy boy is a runaway train
Crazy boy's on the bullet ride tonight
Yeah, yeah. yeah
Yeah. yeah, yeah, yeah Smokin’!
 
Devil's Stomp
I needed time to think things over
To heal my soul and ease the pain
And through a glass a revelation
I could swear I heard the darkness
Call my name
Imagination's runnin'
For too long, yeah
The mind we lost
Can read the senses wrong
I need a shot of realization
I can't believe the things I've seen
'Cause down the bar set the devil man
As he turned around and
smiled He said to me, he said
*Hey boy, I know What you're lookin' for
 It feels so good to be so well
Just take a chance
Step through my open Door
Lord!
*Now boy, I know you're oh so young
And the whole world shines
In front of you
But I can give you anything you want
And I'll make it so easy for you'
All I know is what my mama told me
I know is what she said
"When Beelzebub is sneakin' up on, you
Best be dancin' on his head"
Yeah, Lord, do the devil's stomp
Oh he made it sound so good
Stealin' my soul every way
The devil's price hangs on my soul
Throw a pocket full of gold his way
(* Repeat) Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh glide to the shimmer
Of the moonlight house
I feel so good, you know to be so bad
You've been holdin' back, baby
For much too long
And I feel it creepin' right in my bones
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh Lord, Lord
Do the devil's stomp, do it
 
Seasons
I know it's late
And the swing's gently giving ground
Shadows remain
Of the words that were never spoken
All the years
That we once held in our hands
Just leave us to wonder
Still the winds are changing all the time
But I know it's too late
The sessions all gone by, oh
Seasons can wait
Till a thousand years
Have come and gone
Stories we wrote
All the days that were never counted
Time alone
All the dreams we thought
Would never die
But then there's tomorrow
For these dreams will save
Our lonely times
But I know it's too late
The seasons all gone by, oh
Hear the crashing sound And
time slips away Feel them... .
Wearing this chain on my hands
And I shll bear
Oh Lord, rain on you forever
Oh listen!
I know it's a late
And the evening's greatly giving ground
Shadows remain
Of the words that we
never spoken
Though I dream
Sometimes dreams are all I know
Leave us to wonder
Though the winds are changing
All the time
But I know it's a too late
The seasons all gone by, oh
But I know it a too late
The seasons all gone try
But I know it's too late
The seasons all gone by
Feels so good, oh
And you feel so good, oh
And the faith has changed
Oh with the centuries now
Oh you can feel the change
So many
But I know it's too late
The seasons all gone by
