The Final Countdown
We're leaving together,
But still it's farewell
And maybe we'll come back,
To earth, who can tell ?
I guess there is no one to blame
We're leaving ground
Will things ever be the same again?
It's the final countdown...
We're heading for Venus and still we stand tall
Cause maybe they've seen us and welcome us all
With so many light years to go and things to be found
I'm sure that we'll all miss her so.
Sign Of The Times
When the word is out from the other side
She turns around
Cause day and night she's waited patiently
Now a different kind of world out there
Is to be found
It's over not for everyone to see
This is the way it's meant to be
It's the way that we make things right
It's the way that we hold on tight
I know, it's the sigh of the times
It's the way that we make things turn
It's the way that we live and learn
I know, it's the sigh of the times
It wakes him up, he turns around
And now he's gone
He's been waitin' for this moment desperately
Now the time is right, he's turnin' back
He's going home
Yeah it's over now for everyone to see
This is the way it's meant to be
It's the way that we make things right...
And everytime it's on my mind
I fell so insecure
It worries me to end up here alone
But everytime I realize I need her more and more
I'd never make it on my own
It's the way that we make things right...
Carrie
When light goes down, I see no reason
For you to cry. We've been through this before
In every time, in every season,
God knows I've tried
So please don't ask for more.
Can't you see it in my eyes
This might be our last goodbye
Carrie, Carrie, things they change my friend
Carrie, Carrie, maybe we'll meet again
I read your mind, with no intentions
Of being unkind, I wish I could explain
It all takes time, a whole lot of patience
If it's a crime, how come I feel no pain.
Cherokee
They lived in peace, not long ago
A mighty Indian tribe
But the winds of change,
Made them realize, that the promises were lies.
The white man's greed, in search of gold
Made the nation bleed
They lost their faith
And now they hade to learn
There was no place to return
Nowhere they could turn.
Cherokee - marching on the trail of tears.
They were driven hard, across the plains
And walked for many moons
Cause the winds of change,
Had made them realize, that the promises were lies.
So much to bear, all that pain
Left them in despair
They lost their faith
And now they hade to learn
There was no place to return
Nowhere they could turn.
Time Has Come
Long for the sailor, beneath the skies
Long for the white dove, no matter where she flies
Long for the stranger you know so well.
Pray for the soldier, who's wounded bad
Pray for the dreamer, he's still so sad
Pray for the stranger you know so well.
Cause I'm coming home.
Now the time has come
For me to come back home.
Long for the eagle, on wings so strong
Long for the hunter, he won't be long
Long for the stranger you know so well.
Open Your Heart
Days filled joy and days filled with sorrow
I don't know just what to do
Am I happy today, am I lonely tomorrow
Everything depends on you
And I've been waitin'
For the angels to knock on my door
I've been hopin'
That everything could be like before
Open your heart and tell me what's wrong
Why can't you talk like you used to do before
I don't know if I'm weak, I don't know if Im strong
Hey girl I can't cope anymore
And I've been waitin'...
Open your heart, let me hear you
Make up your mind, I want to hear you call
Open your heart, want to come near you
Make up your mind, before we lose it all
Maybe that time has its own way of healin'
Maybe it dries the tears in your eyes
But never change the way that I'm feelin'
Only you can answer my cries
And I've been waitin'...
Open your heart, let me hear you...
Let The Good Times Rock
You say that you want me
I hope that you do
Cause tell me just where I would be in this world
Without someone like you
When you say that you need me
Like only you can
Oh baby you don't really know what you've done
To the heart of this man
So baby tonight we will celebrate
And talk of the times til it gets real late
Yes baby tonight we'll appreciate
Just what we've got
So let the good times rock
Oh when you squeeze me
And say that you care
There's nothin' I know that could drag me away
When that feelin' is there
Oh the way that you move me
And makin' me feel
Well I could have sworn that I lived in a dream
If it wasn't for real
Oh baby tonight we will celebrate...
Halfway To Heaven
Another day has come
Can't face it on my own
I almost let you walk away
I guess I should have known
I'll give it to you straight
'Cause some things just can't wait
I've got to make it up to you
And I'll pray it's not too late
'Cause when you look at me
With those sad blue eyes
It stops me cold and I realize
You're all I need tonight
We're halfway to heaven
Lyin' beside you on a night
So still
We're halfway to heaven
I ask you if you'll stay and baby
Say you will
So what's a man to do
To get it through to you
Another lost and lonely night
Would break this heart in two
So let's take a chance
And it'll be alright
Just put your trust in me tonight
Girl we're almost there
We're halfway to heaven
There's something magic
'Bout the way you kiss
We're halfway to heaven
Runnin' with you baby
On a night like this
We're halfway to heaven
I never dreamed that
I could get this high
We're halfway to heaven
Girl I couldn't leave you
Even if I tried
You got me captured
In a crazy spin
You got me so I just
Can't tell the shape I'm in
Tomorrow
Will you be there beside me
If the world falls apart
And will all of out moments
Remain in your heart
Will you be there to guide me
All the way through, I wonder will you
Walk by my side, and follow my dreams
And bear with my pride, as strong as it seems
Will ou be there tomorrow
Will you be there beside me
As time goes on by
And be there to hold me
Whenever I cry
Will you be there to guide me
All the way through, I wonder will you
Walk by my side, and follow my dreams...
Prisoners In Paradise
I want to learn how to fly
I want to be respected
I want to get lucky
I want to get out of this dump
I just want to watch TV
I want to be loved
I want to be different
I want a brother and sister
I'd just rather be forgotten
I want to save the world
I want to be understood
I want to be rich
Man, I just want to be somebody
Julie's got the word today
She lost her job just one last pay
Life don't come easy anymore
Still strugglin'on by herself
Got a picture of Jimmy
There on the shelf
And she looks at him and says
Why did we let it go
I know that sometimes baby
We didn't see things eye-to-eye
But I got just one question
Did we have to say goodbye
Just like prisoners in paradise
Still far from heaven's door
We had it all but still we
Wanted more
Now I realize that I can't
Turn back the future's here
To stay but hey
We're just children of tomorrow
Hangin' on to yesterday
Jimmy still recalls the night
When he took his guitar
And headed on out
To find the big time
That was his dream
He gave up his past
And made it alright
But there's something missin'
In his heart tonight
Sometimes what you want
Ain't what you need
He misses drivin' down
To the lake at night
Holdin' his baby
In his arms so tight
Ain't it hard to find illusions
When you're livin' in a memory
Just like prisoners in paradise
So close but yet so far
There will come a time
No matter who you are
When you ask yourself
Was it right or wrong
For me to turn away but hey
We're just children of tomorrow
Hangin' on to yesterday
