Desiree

Desiree, in the shadow of the dawn, he's burning into you,
Your restless mind is haunted by the feeling of the night,
He turns around to touch you but he knows you've gone.

You've been travellin', Desiree, since you were grown enough not to cry

Desiree, you first met your love in southern Italy,
The Mediterranian breeze has blown your love away,
You're flying off to somewhere but you know he's gone.

Desiree, on sunset cliffs you watch the end of yesterday,
The Californian dream has swept your love away,
You're tryin' to remember but you know he's gone.

Kids To Blame

What's that fussin in the lane,
All the heat have gone insane.
Calling kids and pushing blame,
Police have numbers but no name.

Nothing's changed, it's all the same.
Kids to blame, kids to blame

Hold it man the kid ain't dumb
He knows who's right and who is wrong.
But kids are wrong, ain't got no rights,
Gets the heat a bit unstrung

Broken Lady

Broken Lady, tears run dry, you lie there easy,
Growing wise through it all.
Tearin' your soul, they watched you fall,
Lady, just lately, your song has grown sour.

Who'll weep for the withered rose,
Who'll mourn the sparrow,
Who'll cry for tomorrow?

Broken Lady, they sing your song,
Clinging to shadows of lovers long gone.
Children sing loud?, children draw near,
Lady, just lately, your song has grown sour.

Tearin' your soul, they watched you fall,
Lady, just lately, your song has grown sour.

Juno

Juno was a star, everyone loved how he sang,
They would follow him like the Pied Piper of Hamelin,
With a song he'd make them cry, then he'd take them, make them laugh,
When he sang it felt like magic, he was the king of them all.

Some who heard him sing thought he was touched by the Devil,
Juno didn't care, people had said this before.
They'd still be there to see him watching every move he made and
Loving every note he sang, he was the king of them all.

Juno, what's your secret? Are you human?
Juno, how'd you do it? Is it magic?

Just before he died, Juno sent out for his critics,
When they all arrived, told them that he kept a secret.
Secret of his great successes, now he was about to share it,
But before a word was spoken he died and so nobody knew.

Touch Of Tequila

Lyin' in the sun, gettin' down, gettin' brown, and I'm loving you,
Pictures in the sky, shadows dance, eagles cry, and I'm loving you,
Honeysuckle haze, steamin' sands, easy breeze, and I'm loving you,
My, oh my, it's summertime.

Barefoot on the stones, silver sea, shining foam, and I'm loving you,
Hours melt away, lazy waves, driftin' days, and I'm loving you,
Lyin' in the sun, gettin' down, gettin' brown, and I'm loving you,
My, oh my, it's summertime.

I love to be in love in summertime, a touch of tequila (sunshine),
I love to be in love in summertime, a touch of tequila.

Moonshine

Floatin' in space, driftin' through the stars,
Waitin' and waitin' for you to appear.

Racin' the sun, playin' in the moonshine,
Would be a pleasure if you were here, too.

Come up and join me, come up and see me,
Leave all behind you, start something new.

There will be good times, like the time before,
When the Earth was new and all was me and you.

We'll fly together from Jupiter to Mars,
Meetin' old friends as we pass through the stars (stars, stars).

So much to see, so much to do,
Nothing to lose, just me and you.

Heaven (Never Seemed So Far Away)

World of friends and I'm a stranger, so hard to circulate,
Crowded streets, I see no faces, no place for a changing soul.

Like the ship on an angry ocean, a Ferris Wheel that spins too fast,
For a dog snarling in the corner, Heaven never seemed so far away.

Maybe the game is someone else's, get tired of playing along,
Or when you win, taking chances, your way is yours alone.

For an artist in a hungry basement, falling rain on a lonely man,
For a kid fighting with his father, Heaven never seemed so far away.

Hot and Bothered

I don't want to talk much, I Iove how your lips go,
Whisperin' kisses, love me, come close to me,
I'm hot and bothered, just want to hold you tonight.

Climb up the ladder
over the top now,
Straight up, it's hands down,
Straight up the ladder of love,
Hot and bothered, hot and bothered, just want to hold you tonight.

Got it in store babe, stored up my loving
Sucking my thumb I'm hot on your loving me
I'm hot and bothered , just want to hold you tonight

Dazed

Well, here I go again, get ready to start the machine,
And cover all trace of gloom with a smile as I leave the dressing room,
Dazed by the lights of fame, go on and begin my reign.

Well, now we're all alone, entertaining each other this way,
I'll sing you a new love song, while you're with me, aware of nothing wrong,
Burned by the lights of fame, feel warm, yet I feel no pain.

Give it all (give it all), give it all to you (to you),
Then I'll give even more (even more) even more to you (to you).

And now it's time to go, get ready to pack the machine,
And when I'm away from here (far from here), all that's left are empty cans of beer,
Will you remember me, I know I'll remember you.

Baby Please Don't Go

Baby please don't go
Please don't go
Please don't go down New Orleans, I love you so,
baby please don't go
My man is gone
My man is gone
My man done gone down the county line, got them shackles on,
baby please don't go
Won't you be my dog?
Come on and be my dog
Gonna walk the dog, gets me way down here, you made me walk the log,
please don't go

Turn the light down low
Turn the light down low (please don't go)
Turn the light down low
Turn the light down low( please don't go
Turn the light down low, I love you all night long, please don't go,
baby please don't go

Renegade

I'll take your love, and paint it blue
Drink your tears and cry for you
I'll put your heart on private view
Wear your frowns and worries, too

A Renegade is love
An outlaw on the run
A Renegade is love
A Renegade is love
No gold can pay the ransom
A Renegade is love

I'll be the rebel to your cause
Single-handed fight your wars
I'll be the ghost who haunts your dreams
Keep you warm when you can't sleep

I'll be the partner to your crimes
The alibis to all your lies
I'll feed the hunger in your eyes
Who braves the danger wins the prize

Renegade is love
An outlaw on the run
A Renegade is love
A Renegade is love
No gold can pay the ransom
A Renegade is love
A Renegade is love
The Devil's only master
A Renegade is love

We're Only Human

In shanty towns, on ghetto streets
Where mad dogs fight while the children sleep
In border camps for refugees
A voice cries out from the wind

We're only human, flesh and blood

On desert plains, in burnt-out lands
Where young and old hold out their hands
And war machines have razed the land
A voice cries out from the sand

We're only human, flesh and blood

I sit alone, a silent scream
Broken dream, a memory
It all comes back to you and me
I know that deep in my soul
