Took all this time
I never thought it would be like this
I guess the best is best forgotten
Now and then i come back to that dream
Where if i set you free
You'd come back to me
And say that it's not all for nothing

All i wanted was one hit record
All i wanted was a chance to be a star
All i wanted was a happy ending

Don't want to hear about the money you're making
Don't want to hear about the young girl shaking
All i wanted was a happy ending...
Somewhere

Well, my good friends talk about
The things they've done
And look around where i am now
Lately in bed
With this worry in my head
Sometimes wish that i were dead
Just like robin saunders said

All i wanted was one hit record
All i wanted was a chance to be a star
All i wanted was a happy ending

Don't want to hear about the money you're making
Don't want to hear about the young girl shaking
All i wanted was a happy ending...
Somewhere
Somewhere down the line

All i wanted was one hit record
All i wanted was a chance to be a star
All i wanted was a happy ending

Don't want to hear about the money you're making
Don't want to hear about the young girl shaking
All i wanted was a happy ending...
Somewhere
Somewhere down the line...oh yeah

Somewhere down the line
Oh yeah
Somewhere
Somewhere
Yeah
Somewhere
Somewhere
Somewhere

Where are you running my love
Through the back streets of the city
You're keeping an eye on the horizon
Looking over your shoulder
Must be some demon driving you
I must have looked like a prime one
Running after you like we still could survive
But nobody i've ever loved ever hurt me like you did
With that lack of feelin'

I've got a hole in my heart
You know that i've got a hole in my heart
But i won't beg, oh baby
I won't beg anymore

You're nothing but a taker
A real heartbreaker
Who ever hurt you so long ago baby,

Must have been a master
But you're learning fast

I've got a hole in my heart
You know that i've got a hole in my heart
But i won't beg, oh baby
I won't beg anymore

Nobody i've ever loved ever hurt me like you did
With that lack of feelin'

I've got a hole in my heart
You know that i've got a hole in my heart
But i won't beg, oh baby
I won't beg anymore

I've got a hole in my heart
I've got a hole in my heart
I've got a hole in my heart

Streaking
Do we do on a lonely campus night
Tv's a drag and they're turning off the city lights
I remember the days of the party raids
And sitting on combs was a silly craze
We got a new one
And it's called

Streaking the old australian way
Streaking
We're bringing back the age
Streaking
The old australian way
Streaking

It's not what you call your regular high school course
It's a little like lady godiva without the horse
You just need a crowd and some confidence
There's nothing special to wear so there's no expense

Everybody can do it
So let's go streaking
The old australian way
We're bringing back the age
Streaking
The old australian way

Me and my lady are going to get away
Then go streaking night and day
We felt for awhile there was nothing new to try
You don't have to smoke it but it still gets you high
You just need a mg to get away
And maybe a nice warm sunny day

Anybody can do it
So let's go streaking the old australian way
We're bringing back the age
Streaking

Lio they say you haven't made it
Until you got that favor
I can't help it hurts me
The pen cuts like a razor
Too bad if they kick you in the face
They draw blood you can put in your pen
And you write again

Oh what a disappointment, lio
I thought that you would go the distance, my-o
Anticipation was a little, high-o
You were low, low, low, low, lio

Symbols spread across the pages
I play electric wires
I've got rhythms in my head
And irons in the fires
It don't hurt the process
But they did leave a scar on the face of the fighter
Who'll fight again

Oh what a disappointment, lio
I thought that you would go the distance, my-o
Anticipation was a little high-o
You were low, low, low, low, lio

My world, which lives inside of my head
No where else but my head
And i'm the one who puts the limitations on it
They said you belong in this line over here
No thanks, i'm not that weak
And the music will speak again

Oh what a disappointment, lio
I thought that you would go the distance, my-o
Anticipation was a little high-o
You were low, low, low, low, lio
You were low, low, low, low, lio
You were low, low, low, low

Humans walking around in cages
We build with our own hands
Looking for the turning point
That waits outside

(van morrison)

Another lesson learned
Wrapped around my soul
Another journey ends
Another story told
Innocents, forever burns
A light in the window
Until your dreams return


Let it shine
Shine on you
Cause you got the power
To make it come true


Let it shine
Shine on me
I need you to help me
Gotta help me believe


Now the magic's here
Like the moon and stars
Imagination comes
No matter who you are
You are free
Free to believe
In the light in the window
In the power of your dreams


Let it shine
Shine on me
You got the power
Power to make it come true


Let it shine
Shine on me
I need you to help me
You gotta help me believe


Let it shine
Shine on me
Cause you got the power
To make it come true


So let it shine
Shine on me
Need you to help me
You gotta help me believe
In the world

Waking up in the night
The fear comes down
Oh
And here i go again with the insecurities
Doubts are running themselves all over me

Help
Help is on the way
She don't have to say
Anything
She reaches out her hand
I know she understands
All of me
Nobody loves me like she

Just another face in the human sea
But she gives me a reason to believe
I myself am an island in the human sea
And i know i am never gonna leave
I was running like a river
Running like a river before

Standing on the beach
Of the human sea
I feel so absolutely insignificant
One more dreamer in a city of heartbreak

Help
Help is on the way
She don't have to say
Anything
She reaches out her hand
I know she understands
All of me
Nobody loves her like me

Just another face in the human sea
But she gives me a reason to believe
I myself am an island in the human sea
And i know i am never gonna leave
I was running like a river
Running like a river before

I don't want to seem too dependent
But i guess it already shows
By the short hairs i will follow
Every where that she goes

Just another face
Help
Help is on the way
She don't have to say anything
I know she understands
She reaches out her hand to me
Nobody lover her like me

Just another life in a human sea
I'm just the next one looking for an answer
Take your partners hand for the human dance
Won't you lead
You know i'm not a dance
Just another face to the human sea
But she gives me a reason to believe
I find myself an island in the human sea
And i know i'm never gonna leave
I was running like a river
Running like a river
I was running like a river
Running like a river before
Just another face in the human sea
But she gives me a reason to believe
Find myself an island in the human sea
And i know i'm never gonna leave
I was running like a river
Running like a river
I was running like a river
Running like a river before

I love that look comes in your eyes when we're all alone
And it's much too late for friends to come calling
I disconnect the phone
And i put on the radio and i take her and i talk real low
And i hold her tight and soon i'm dancing in the night

Inside silvia, oh silvia, yeah, yeah, silvia
I know my love is alive
Inside silvia, yeah silvia, oh silvia, oh

Sometimes you get so crazy and i know it's all in your mind
And right in the middle of the night, i see just what you need
And they say that love is blind
And i hold you till the feelings come
But sometimes when the lovin's done i see the scared little girl
Afraid of the woman

Inside silvia, oh silvia, yeah, yeah, silvia
I know my love is alive
Inside silvia, yeah silvia, oh silvia, oh

Though the world may rage and storm
There's still one harbor where i'm safe and warm

It's when i'm inside silvia, yeah silvia, oh silvia, oh
Inside silvia, oh silvia, yeah, yeah, silvia
I know my love is alive
Inside silvia, yeah silvia, oh silvia, oh

I see you standing out there in the hall
You seem so nervous waiting for his call
I focus on you
I reach for the lens
The shutter snaps again

(smile)
Smile for the camera
You know
(smile)
The camera never ever lies
I've been watching you with
Eager hungry eyes
For sometime
(smile)

I hold my lens in the middle of the night
Visions of you dancing in the strobe light
Up on my wall is a picture or two
Of someone who looks like you

(smile)
Smile for the camera
You know
(smile)
The camera is my wide lens
(smile)
You know the camera is my private eye
I got color transparencies
I got black and white
(smile)
Smile for the camera
You know that
(smile)
Cameras never ever lies
(smile)
I've been watching you with telephoto eyes
For some time

(smile)
Smile for me

Smile for me

Smile for me

Smile for me
(come on)
Smile for me

Won't you smile for the camera
Won't you smile for the
Click, click, click

(smile)
Smile for the camera

Smile for the camera

I've been watching you
With eager hungry eyes for some time

Standing at the terminal i can almost hear the music
Coming from the cold and chilly l.a. night
And when we get to the gate, baby
All of the things that were said
Will they turn you 'round and bring you back
Will they bring you back
Will you come back home 'cause you know i'm waiting

The light of love is always on
You know my love is getting stronger and stronger
The light of love is always on
Keeping the night watch

Baby, are you lonely, don't talk to strangers
I'm trying to tell myself you won't be gone for long
And when we get to the part baby, where all of the tears start to come
Will you turn around, get on the plane
Will it bring you back, will you come back home
'cause you know i'm waiting

The light of love is always on
You know my love is getting stronger and stronger
The light of love is always on
Keeping the night watch

Bess:
Baby i'm sad
I feel you inside every time
I breathe
When i kissed your mouth
You made me feel strong.
You were my life from that first kiss
I knew you better than i knew myself


But i thought we had forever, baby
I'd always be the one you needed
Goodbyes came to fast
Precious moments last
You were the only one
The one who could have made it
Last forever


Houdini:
Baby i miss you too
I spent my life trying
To capture a dream
When i touched your face
I burned with desire
Though our souls are worlds apart
You're living in my heart


Both:
But i thought we had forever, baby
I'd always be the one you needed
Goodbyes came to fast
Precious moments last
You were the only one
The one who could have made it
Last forever

Interlude - scene: the escapes

Both:
But i thought we had forever, baby
I'd always be the one you needed
Goodbyes came to fast
Precious moments last
You were the only one
The one who could have made it
Last forever

Bess:
My heart beats to the memory of you

Both:
Love is the only thing that's true
But i thought we had forever, baby
I'd always be the one you needed
Goodbyes came to fast
Precious moments last
You were the only one
The one who could have made it
Last forever


Together we will make it last forever
Together we will make it last forever

(jimmy hart)


(spoken) ring, ring. "hello, hello, hi, is cyndi in?"
"no, who is this?"
"what do you mean, who is this? this is jimmy hart, the mouth of the south. where is she?"
"she's gone to the rick springfield concert!"
"rick springfield!?!"

I called my chick
On the phone last night
Her mother said
She was gone for the night
She had two tickets
To a rock n' roll show
To see her working class hero

So i jumped in my car
And i cruised downtown
I could hear the music playing
From a mile around
So i got me a ticket
And i walked inside
I could see him standing
There in the spotlight

(chorus)
Eat your hart out, rick springfield

(the kinks)



I'm not content to be with you in the daytime
Girl i want to be with you all of the time
The only time i feel alright is by your side
Girl i want to be with you all of the time
All day and all of the night
All day and all of the night
All day and all of the night

I believe that you and me last forever
Oh yea, all day and nighttime yours, leave me never
The only time i feel alright is by your side
Girl i want to be with you all of the time

I believe that you and me last forever
Oh yea, all day and nighttime yours, leave me never
The only time i feel alright is by your side
Girl i want to be with you all of the time
All day and all of the night
All day and all of the night time
All day and all of the night

Baby used to be a rock n roller
In the night time
She used to use all of my money
To have a good time

I gave her plenty of good times
She gave me plenty of heartaches
She was planning a getaway
Oh take me

To beethoven street
That's where i want to be
Yeah take me
To beethoven street
That's where i want to be
Baby's given up rock n roll
And i can hardly keep control
Take me to beethoven street
Mr. i want to be there

Who cut the power on you
I just don't know
Who pulled the switch her heartbeat
She wouldn't let me know
I gave her plenty of good times
She gave me plenty of heartaches
She was planning a getaway

Take me to beethoven street
That's where i want to be
Take me to beethoven street
Mr. i want to be there
Who cut the power on you baby
I just don't know
Who pulled the power on you
I just don't know
I gave her plenty of good times
She gave me plenty of heartaches
She was planning a getaway

Take me to beethoven street
That's where i want to be
Take me to beethoven street
Mr. i want to be there
Take me to beethoven street

I'm picking up my baby tonight
Though her daddy's making trouble
It will be alright
I'm working hard, i don't know why
I'm like a working class dog
And i just get by
Tonight i'm crawling out from in it
And though we're livin' on the brink
Second by second by minute by minute

Walking the floor on my hands over you
I just can't believe what you're trying to do
Spinning around and around and you know i'm

Walking the floor on my hands over you
Walking the floor on my hands over you
I just can't believe what you've been trying to do
Spinning around and around and you know i'm
Walking the floor on my hands over you

Everybody wants somebody
And i can make it just for you
Won't you tell me please tell me
What you're trying to do
Everybody says you want me
Baby i'm not too sure
Just what you've been doing
It should be against the law

Walking the floor on my hands over you
I just can't believe what you're trying to do
Spinning around and around and you know i'm
Walking the floor on my hands over you

Well you got me
I don't know what's going down
Tell me where you want me
And put me back on the ground
Everybody says you want me
Baby i'm not too sure
Just what you've been doing
It should be against the law

Walking the floor on my hands over you
I just can't believe what you're trying to do
Spinning around and around and you know i'm

Walking the floor on my hands over you
Walking the floor on my hands over you
I just can't believe what you're trying to do
Spinning around and around and you know i'm

Walking the floor on my hands over you
Walking the floor on my hands over you
Walking the floor on my hands over you

Another day passes like a ghost
And you're wishing you were any place but here
From your prison cell of flesh and bone
You send a prayer on it's suicide last flight
Into the air, into the rain
And it sends you nothing back again

Hey maria it's a big beautiful friday night
Hey maria, hey na na, hey na na na yeah

Day to day and coast to coast
Everything seems anything but clear
Inside your skin of steel and stone
Your need for somebody wakes you late night
But there's something there you can't explain
As you come in bed alone again

Hey maria, it's a big beautiful friday night
Hey maria - hey na na, hey na na na yeah
Hey maria, why don't we drink 'til we just don't care tonight
Hey maria - hey na na, hey na na na yeah

Life is a perfect song with a fractured beat
Yeah it's a one way sign on a dead end street

Hey maria, you sure look beautiful tonight

Hey maria, it's a big beautiful friday night
Hey maria, hey na na, hey na na na yeah
Hey maria don't let it be so complicated tonight
Hey maria, hey na na, hey na na na yeah

This one way love affair ain't fair, it ain't fair to me
It's all give and take and you just take
I can't take it you see
Well, i'm givin' up on love this time
Me and my friends, we'll do just fine

I've done everything for you
You've done nothing for me
I've done everything for you
You've done nothing for me

You said someday i'd have a whole lotta money,
I'd be a millionaire
But when that didn't happen over night
I found out how much you really cared
Well, all you want is a whole lotta money
All the rest is just jivin' honey

I've done everything for you
You've done nothing for me
I've done everything for you
You've done nothing for me

When i first met you, you didn't know how to love a man
All those things about makin' love you didn't understand
Now you know about everything
I'm turning you in for memories, you see

I've done everything for you
You've done nothing for me
I've done everything for you
You've done nothing for me
I've done everything for you
You've done nothing for me
I've done everything for you
You've done nothing for me

Well, i'm going out on the town tonight
And get as wild as i can be
I'm gonna find out what it's really like to be lose, high and free
Well, i don't care what the people say
I'm changin' my mind, i'm changin' to stay

I've done everything for you
You've done nothing for me
I've done everything for you
You've done nothing for me
You've done nothing for me
You've done nothing
You've done nothing
You've done nothing for me

The magic hat's around you
The magic that surrounds you
Is the kind of magic
You're the very heart of


Its the magic in the trees
The magic on a breeze
Its the magic of the world
Which you're a part of.


Open your eyes boy
Open your heart and soul
Let the world embrace you
And you're on your way


Open your eyes boy
Open your mind and body
The world is filled with magic everyday


The magic that's around you
The magic that surrounds you
Is a magic that is yours
If you believe it
Its the magic in the air
The magic everywhere
If you're open to its power
You'll receive it


Look at your life boy
Look at that road ahead
Starting from this moment
You must find your way


Look at your mind boy
Every path leads to adventure
Life is what you make it everyday
Everyday

(jeff barrie and ellie greenwich)


There she was just a-walkin' down the street,
Singin', do-wah diddy-diddy down diddy-do
Snappin' her fingers and shufflin' her feet,
Singin', do-wah diddy-diddy down diddy-do
She looked good, looked good
She looked fine, looked fine
She looked good, she looked fine
And i nearly lost my mind

Before i knew it she was walkin' next to me.
Singin', do-wah diddy-diddy down diddy-do
Holdin' my hand just as natural as can be,
Singin', do-wah diddy-diddy down diddy-do
We walked on, walked on
To my door, my door
We walked on to my door,
Then we kissed a little more

Wo-o-o-oh, i knew we were falling in love,
Yes i did, and so i told her all the things
That i'd been dreamin' of

Now we're toget her nearly every single day,
Singin', do-wah diddy-diddy down diddy-do
We're so happy and that how we're gonna stay,
Singin', do-wah diddy-diddy down diddy-do
I'm hers, i'm hers
She's mine, she's mine
I'm hers, she's mine,
Wedding bells are gonna chime

Wo-o-o-oh, i knew we were falling in love,
Yes i did, and so i told her all the things
That i'd been dreamin' of

Now we're togther nearly every single day
Singin', do-wah diddy-diddy down diddy-do
We're so happy and that how we're gonna stay
Singin', do-wah diddy-diddy down diddy-do
I'm hers, i'm hers
She's mine, she's mine
I'm hers, she's mine,
Wedding bells are gonna chime

Singin', do-wah diddy-diddy down diddy-do
Do-wah diddy-diddy down diddy-do
Do-wah diddy-diddy down diddy-do
