1. _ Say Goodbye
(harold faltermeyer/ david cooke/ magda la bont?
Producers for bonnie: harold faltermeyer/ uli fisher/ andi slavik
Recorded in 1994 for the animated feature film 'asterix in amerika' (aka 'asterix conquers america'). lyrics taken from careful listening.
Somewhere inside is burning
I don't know why it's hurting
Hoping for just one sign in your eyes
That tells me you will be still
Where can i go to find you?
What must i do to feel you?
Always looking, but too blind to see
You were there, right by my side
Say goodbye, i'll never forget
Say goodbye, i believe in the day
Say goodbye, our hearts could beat both together
'cause we, we'll find a way...one day
What can i do, to hold you
Now that i know, i love you
Never found that our hearts felt the same
'til the cold light of day stole our dreams
Say goodbye, i'll never forget
Say goodbye, 'cause i believe in the day
Say goodbye, our hearts could beat both together
'cause we, we'll find a way...
Say goodbye, i'll never forget
Say goodbye, i believe in the day
Say goodbye, our hearts could beat both together
'cause we, we'll find a way
We will find a way
We will find a way
We will find a way

2. _ Islands
(mike oldfield)
Producer for bonnie: mike oldfield
Recorded in 1987 for mike oldfield's album 'islands', lyrics taken from careful listening.
Islands
From the first time we saw
We could wait for this moment
Like rocks on the shore
We could never be closer somehow
For the moment that lasts
Is this moment now
When the night's on fire
Oh, will you keep the candle-light burning
Hold onto your heart's desire
(hearts on fire)
When you see one bird into the wind
Another one's turning
And the two can fly much higher
(higher)
Chorus:
We are islands
But never too far
We are islands
And i need your light tonight
And i need your light tonight...(x2)
Islands
Never been to before
And we climb so high
To where the wild birds soar
There's a new path
That we found just today
I was lost in the forest
And you showed me the way
When the night's on fire
Oh, will you keep the candle-light burning
Hold onto your heart's desire
(hearts on fire)
When you see one bird into the wind
Another one's turning
And the two can fly much higher
(higher)
Chorus x 4

I can see the glow
Of the distant sun

They are waiting for me
Calling my name
Shouting out loud
Limelight
You were all i ever wanted, since it all began
Limelight
Shining on me, telling the world who i am
Oh, limelight
Don't let me slip right through you fingers
There's along way to fall
After all the years of waiting
I'm going to show them all
I can see the world
In a different light
Now it's easy to say
Where i went wrong
What i did right
Holding on isn't always easy
I am gonna change my mind

Producer for bonnie: dieter bohlen
Recorded in 1994, bonnie's last single on the 'hansa' label. this single was to promote the 'comeback singles collection '90-'94'. lyrics taken from careful listening.
I dream of home again
A thousand voices call to me
A cry that splits the night
Woke up the soul inside my memories
I chose to walk alone
To search and find my destiny
So many lonesome roads
Lead me away from where i long to be
When i awake and see a cold and empty room
I sit alone and think of places i once knew
The friends that i had loved and left behind
Oh, how could i have been so blind?
Back home
Where all the love is that i need
Where all my family waits for me
Back home
I close my eyes and i can see
Where the river meets the sea
Back home
There is no better place than home for me
'cause home is where i'll find my destiny
I'm going home again and i just can't wait to see
The folks that i have missed
A mother's tender kiss, so soft, so sweet
I'll hold her in my arms, like i'd never let her go
My family's my home and i will tell them that i love them so
Oh i know i've been away so very long
That i hurt you when i left and i was wrong
And i see that home is where my heart belongs
So hang on heart, 'cause her i come
Back home
Where all the love is that i need
Where all my family waits for me
Back home
I close my eyes and i can see
Where the river meets the sea
Back home
There is no better place than home for me
'cause home is where i'll find my destiny
Back home
Where all the love is that i need
Where all my family waits for me
Back home
I close my eyes and i can see
Where the river meets the sea
Back home
There is no better place than home for me
'cause home is where i'll find my destiny

We wait for the weekends to go out dancing
We work all week just to get our pay

Recorded in 1975, this was bonnie's first ever recording! lyrics taken from careful listening.
Here i am in the city
With a picture of you in my head
I remember that night
The words you said
You told me i was pretty
With the moon shining down on my hair
I'm hung up on you now
But you're not there
My! my! honeycomb
The bees are buzzing, the birds have flown
Wild, wild honeycomb, leave my honey alone
My! my! honeycomb
The bees are buzzing, i should have known
Sweet, sweet honeycomb, leave my honey alone
Wrote you so many letters
I was hoping you'd answer with flowers
Then i sat by myself
To watch the hours
But you didn't come boy
Not a word, not a call, not a thing
Don't you know how it hurts me
When you sting
My! my! honeycomb
The bees are buzzing, the birds have flown
Wild, wild honeycomb, leave my honey alone
My! my! honeycomb
The bees are buzzing, i should have known
Sweet, sweet honeycomb, leave my honey alone
Leave my honey alone
My! my! honeycomb
The bees are buzzing, the birds have flown
Wild, wild honeycomb, leave my honey alone
My! my! honeycomb
The bees are buzzing, i should have known
Sweet, sweet honeycomb, leave my honey alone

13. _ Married Men
(bugatti - musker)
Producers for bonnie: ronnie scott, steve wolfe
Bonnie recorded this song in 1979 for the film 'the world is full of married men'. the lyrics are taken from the japanese single.
The world is full of married men
With wives who never understand
They're looking for someone to share
The excitement of a love affair
Just as soon as they find you
They wine you and dine you
You fly on the wings of romance
But in the eyes of the world
You're just another crazy girl
Who loves a married man
Oh your love is a secret
And you've got to keep it
As long as you can
No don't cry for your lover
There's always another married man
The world is full of married men
Oh yeah you make him feel so young
But his wife will still be number one
He promises to marry you
Just as soon as his divorce
Comes through
And it's not just a fling
He swears it's the real thing
A love that could last till the end
As he's driving away
You know it's true what they say
About married men
They do it, they do it, they do it
They do it again and again
They do it, they do it, they do it
They do it, married men
Oh he'll run when the scandal
Gets too hot to handle
He'll say i just want to be friends
They he'll walk out of your life
He'll go home to his wife
'cause he's a married man
Oh your love is a secret
And you've got to keep it
As long as you can
No don't cry for your lover
There's always another married man
The world is full of married men
They do it, they do it, they do it
They do it again and again
They do it, they do it, they do it
They do it, married men
He'll walk out of your life
And go home to his wife
A married man
Don't cry for your lover
There's always another married man
They do it, they do it, they do it
They do it again and again
They do it, they do it, they do it
They do it, married men....repeat and fade

14. _ Here She Comes
(giorgio moroder/ pete bellotte)
Producer for bonnie: giorgio moroder
Recorded in 1984 for giorgio moroder's re-make of fritz lang's film 'metropolis'. lyrics taken from careful listening.
She begins to steal the light
Confusion throws another mystery
It's out of focus with the eyes
So now you wonder is this just a dream?
Here she comes, here she comes
She's gonna cause a sensation now
And just between you and me
I think she'll soon have you temptation bound
Suppose? who know? she's not above suspicion
Is she? maybe? on some kind of secret mission
Better listen
Somewhere, somehow
There's still some pieces missing
I sense, i feel, trust my intuition
Don't rush into your decision
Now here's a riddle in the rhyme
If she's the same how come she's different now?
The same old eyes, but not the shine
You know you're certain, but you're full of doubt
Now here she comes, here she comes
She's gonna have you at her beck and call
So why refuse? yeah why contend?
When all resistance is impossible
Somewhere, somehow
There's still some pieces missing
I sense, i feel, trust my intuition
Don't rush into your decision
Now here she comes, here she comes
She's gonna have you at her beck and call
So why refuse? yeah why contend?
When all resistance is impossible
Here she comes, here she comes
This lady's serious, make no mistake
Face to face and eye to eye
She'll cast a spell that you may never break

Now i've known for a while
There's been something going on
And i've been getting the impression
That i'm not the only one
And if that's the way you want it
Than you'll have to make a-new
So listen 'til i tell you
Just what i'm gonna do
I don't want you to lie to me
'cause i won't take it anymore
And if i find that you've cheat on me
I'm just gonna walk right out the door
(chorus)
I'm not foolin'
I'm not foolin' anymore
I've got my eyes wide open
Gonna even up the score
I'm not foolin'
No, i'm not foolin'
I'm not foolin'
Oh no anymore
I can't stop thinking how
You hurt me once before
And i'm acting kinda crazy
'cause i feel so insecure
'cause i gave you all the loving
That a man could ever need
I'm a one-man-woman
That's the way i'll always be
You gotta try to understand
Why it's just gotta be this way
And if you know what's good for you
You'd better take notice of what i say

I was livin' in a dream world where real love can't grow
Now it's...
Sayonara tokyo
It's goodbye forever. i'll never be back. never be back
Sayonara tokyo
We cannot live in a memory
I'm lookin' for love where it finds me
Sayonara tokyo
Time is a train on a one-way track
I'm goin' away to the cold north
Now it seems such a long time when the miles come between...
The many nameless faces and the places i've seen...
Bringin' yesterday's memories so clear to my mind
I can finally see where my heart was blind
But it's...
Sayonara tokyo
It's goodbye forever. i'll never be back. never be back

We cannot live in a memory
I'm lookin' for love where it finds me

I'm sat here all alone
Here in my one room home
No one comes 'round no more
No one knocks on my door
Was high, then came the fall
The tax man took it all
I didn't play the rules
I was a careless fool
But it's gonna get better
Feel it in my bones
Just got to hold you 'cause i'm all alone
I need your touch
I need you here to stay
This time i'll never let you get away
They laughed at all my jokes
Look around, where are those crazy folks?
I think of real good times
Those wasted partying nights
Just bring your loving home
Don't waste love on the phone
I love you yes it's true
Hell's what i've been going through
There'll be more ups and downs
Please make that turn around
Not that we've played 'away'
You're coming home to stay
And it's gonna get better
Feel it in my bones
Just got to hold you 'cause i'm all alone
I need your touch
I need you here to stay
Never ever gonna let you get away
Feel it in my bones

I can't see in the dark, but i see you

Oh get out of my head and get into my heart
Get out of my head and get into my heart
I thought it was love
But there's love and there's love
So get out of my head and get into my heart
Not much more i can do, than what i've done
You shot me through the heart, without a gun
Something's happened to you, something's happened to me
Someone's changing our lives, i know it isn't me
Oh get out of my head and get into my heart
Get out of my head and get into my heart
I thought it was love
But there's love and there's love
So get out of my head and get into my heart
Something's happened to you, something's happened to me

(charley foskett)
Producer for bonnie: charley foskett
Recorded in 1986 for the charity album 'it's a live-in world', part of the anti-heroin project. lyrics taken from careful listening.
I don't question the light that shines from your window
And i don't want to hear what the people might say
The think it's only lust, that's hidden in your shadow
But i know different, and that's okay
They've been abused and they're so confused
It's no wonder, they'll take what the can and run
They spend their life in the doorway
The doorway of a lifetime
And their aching arms give no reprise
'cause they don't understand
It's not easy
Never has, or ever will be
Take this loving from me, and you will break my heart
It's not easy
Never has, or ever will be
Take this loving from me, and you will break my heart
Maybe the day will come
When the streets ain't full of everyone
Just trying to hang on to what the can
And you might find when you wake up
The break of dawn has come
And all the sisters of sin are awaiting you
They're waiting to wrap their empty shells
Around your warm, warm and loving heart
And to clutch at your breast with a hand of ice
So pray the winds of change
And don't let them bring you down
To that no good, no good, cheap-talking crowd
'cause they don't understand
It's not easy
Never has, or ever will be
Take this loving from me, and you will break my heart
It's not easy
Never has, or ever will be
Take this loving from me, and you will break my heart
It's not easy
Never has, or ever will be
Take this loving from me, and you will break my heart
It's not easy
Never has, or ever will be
Take this loving from me, and you will break my heart...fade

Recorded in 1986 as a b-side for the singles 'rebel without a clue' and 'lovers again'. lyrics taken from careful listening.
Now i want to say something
Something that's been on my mind
It's really very simple
But the words aren't easy to find
You know you can depend on me
I'll be anything you want me to be
Anything you choose
You know i couldn't refuse
I never felt so much loving
Didn't know that i could feel this way
I'm not a yes kind of woman
But i 'd do anything you say
We don't have to scream and shout it
We don't have to tell the world about it
It's easy when you feel the way i do
Oh, i do it for you, and only you
You know i do it for you, and only you
I do it for you, oh yeah
I do it for you, only you
If you lose your direction
And you can't seem to find your way
You won't have to worry
'cause i'll be right with you, anyway
To guide you through the darkest nights
I was there, holding you tight
I'm the lover who can always pull you through
Ooh, i do it for you, and only you
I do it for you, and only you
You know i do it for you, just for you
You know i do it for you, only you
Oh baby
Oh i'm gonna be so good for you
I'd fight the world single-handed
If you wanted me to
No-one's gonna stop me

(ronnie scott/steve wolfe)
Producers for bonnie: robin geoffrey cable, ronnie scott, steve wolfe
I used to sit right down and imagine
What it would be like
To have your loving arms around me
On a starry night
Oh but i got tired of dreaming
Cos dreaming's nothing to do
I got tired of dreaming
About you
My guns are loaded
You're in my sights
I'm gonna love you tonight
My guns are loaded
They're pointing at your heart
All i need is your loving
And a full time place in your heart
All i need is your loving
And a full time place in your heart
I used to sit right down and imagine
What it would be like
To have you lying there beside me
All through the night

Recorded in 1990 for the soundtrack to a french film called 'code pere noel'. lyrics taken from careful listening.
Merry merry christmas
Don't change kids, stay with us
Stay little jesus
Hold onto my hand
It's not a long way
To fly alone
Don't fly in vain
It's so hard anyway
To become a man
Happy birthday christmas
Welcome holy jesus
Although you rain on us
You can't understand
Why even a child
Learning the truth
Always learns pain
Why does he have to cry
To become a man?
Help me santa claus
Come close to my heart
All the doors are closed
I can't play my part
I can't play my part
Wanted mr. xmas
Dream of little jesus
Kids don't grow up like us
You could change the plan
Here comes the darkness
Time to be sad
Here comes the rain
Please don't leave him hopeless
To become a man
To become a man
To become a man

When i wake up, in the morning
And i turn around and you're not there
Oh it hurts to know you're still so far away
Though i know deep inside you still care
And i want you, ooh, really want you
Oh, anyway and anyhow
I've waited such a long time for your sweet love
And i need you back home with me now
'cause it's not enough to say that you love me
And it's not enough to say that you care
And it's not enough when you say that you need me
If i wake up and still you're not there
And it's not enough to say that you love me
It's not enough to say that you care
And it's not enough when you say that you need me
If i wake up and still you're not there
Oh do you care?
Oh, please believe me, it's not easy
When you're so many miles from home
Oh i need you here to hold and comfort me
I'm so tired of being alone
'cause it's not enough to say that you love me
And it's not enough to say that you care
And it's not enough when you say that you need me
If i wake up and still you're not there
You gotta try to understand
That a woman like me just needs a man to love
(oh, yes she does)
I know you love me loud and clear but if you're not here
It's not enough, you know...
It's not enough to say that you love me
And it's not enough to say that you care
And it's not enough to say that you need me
If i wake up and still you're not there
It's not enough to say that you love me
It's not enough to say that you care
And it's not enough when you say that you need me

When i find myself in times of trouble

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Living in the world agree
There will be an answer, let it be
For though they may be parted
There is still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer, let it be
Let it be, let it be
Let it be, let it be
There will be an answer, let it be
Let it be, let it be
Let it be, let it be
There will be an answer, let it be
And when the night is cloudy
There is still a light that shines on me
Shine on until tomorrow, let it be
When i wake up to the sound of music
Mother mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be, let it be
Let it be, let it be

Recorded in 1986 for the charity album 'it's a live-in world', part of the anti-heroin project. lyrics taken from careful listening.
Put an end to that long cold existence you've lived by
Let a warm and loving hand touch your pain
The part of you that is hurting, making you cry
When all the world looks like the devil in a 3-d frame
Pull down defences
Open up your heart
Don't build defences
'cause they'll only fall apart
'cause it's a live-in world
A live-in world
It's a live-in world
A live-in world
It's a live-in world
It's alright by me
So why can't you see
It's a live-in world
A live-in world
It's a live-in world
Alone and afraid and it's all inside
It starts breaking
And we cry from inside
But the help is denied once again
And your heart has grown cold
'cause you've grown so old
Bones aching
You'll be a slave to that white-powered whore
'til the dragon is slayed
'cause it's a live-in world
A live-in world
It's a live-in world
A live-in world
It's a live-in world
It's alright by me
So why can't you see
It's a live-in world
A live-in world
It's a live-in world

Chorus 1:
Does anyone know my name?
Is there anybody there?
You're as near me as you can ever be
Watching me
Watching me
Tag1:
Does anyone love me?
Does anyone need me?
Nobody knows my name
Takes my blame
Feels my pain
Chorus 2:
Does anyone care for me?
I just need a life to share
All my life i've searched
For someone just like you
Is there anybody there?
Is anyone there?
Anyone there?
Verse 1:
I don't know why you make me wanna stay
'cos there's no-one left to love
I'm losing my life for a reason
I'm losing my life 'cos of you
Tag 2:
Is anybody really there?
Bridge:
No-one waits for no-one
No-one cares at all
Nowhere left to hang around
No-one left to call
Patience is my virtue
By virtue of my shame
Broken pieces everywhere
Everything's a game
Where have all the people gone
That once were in my life
Why has everybody gone away?
Chorus 3:
Does anyone know my name?
Or does anybody care?
There's a reason
Why i know i have to stay
So is anybody there?
I'm losing my life for a reason
I'm losing my life 'cos of you
I want to know you're out there just for me
Chorus 4:
I'm tired of waiting here for you
Now i've made up my mind
You're no good
I don't need you
I don't care anymore when you cry
I'm sending my love far away
With a piece of my heart
And a tear for each day
That i cried
So there must be a reason for living
There must be a reason for loving
It's all right
It's all right
Tag 4:
Will anyone really care
If i just walk away
With a tear in each eye
And a reason not to stay?
Does anyone really know me?
Does anyone really care?
Is there anybody there?

What i need

30. _ Matter Of The Heart
Producer for bonnie: ?
Recorded in 1986 for the soundtrack to the film 'the wraith', starring charlie sheen. lyrics taken from careful listening.
If it was a matter of money
You'd be in by now
She'd be lying by your side
You'd be thinking
Love's door is open wide
You feel defeated
But you're acting proud
Would you try to hide it?
She doesn't care how you come at all
You know all that matters
Is that your love is strong
It's a matter of the heart
It's a matter of the soul
You know a good love only starts
When you start to lose control
And she's calling out your name
And she needs you in the night
You gotta run into the flame
'til you're blinded by the light
You've got to take her in your arms
And let her know
She'll always be your spark
It defines a mans' heart
It's just a matter of the heart
You thought she'd swallow
All the tales you told
Ready to believe
You're so together
There's nothing you can't do, no
But first impressions only leave her cold
It isn't what she needs
She doesn't care about the world you planned
She'll run to you, if you understand
It's a matter of the heart
It's a matter of the soul
You know a good love only starts
When you start to lose control
And she's calling out your name
And she needs you in the night
You gotta dive into the flame
'til you're blinded by the light
Oh...instrumental
It's a matter of the heart
It's a matter of the soul
You know a good love only starts
When you start to lose control
And she's calling out your name
And she needs you in the night
You gotta run into the flame
'til you're blinded by the light
It's a matter of the heart
Matter of the heart (x5)

Producer for bonnie: rick derringer
Recorded in 1983 for rick derringer's 'good dirty fun' album. he had previously been working with bonnie on 'faster than the speed of night' and later asked her to duet. lyrics taken from careful listening.
He's bitter, so blue
Cold armour, see through
Heavy heart, heavy head
Walking tall, walking dead
Then love attacks
And you can try to hide
But in the end there's nowhere
It can get inside
A triple-locked apartment
A secret compartment
Can't conceal the treasure
When love comes to take your heart away
She's fragile, so torn
Spanish lace, so shop-worn
There's a rainbow
And there's a stream
A total eclipse
Of a dream
Then love attacks
And you can try to hide
But in the end there's nowhere
It can get inside
A triple-locked apartment
A secret compartment
Can't conceal the treasure
When love comes to take your heart away
Now he can seem tough
You think he must be scarred
But if you scratch below the surface you'll find
That he's just love-starved
She's so hungry
For something new
Or something borrowed
Out of the blue
Then love attacks
And you can try to hide
But in the end there's nowhere
It can get inside
A triple-locked apartment
A secret compartment
Can't conceal the treasure
When love comes to take your heart away

Producers for bonnie: george martin
Recorded in 1988 for george martin's production of dylan thomas's play 'under milk wood'. bonnie guested with a host of other welsh stars, including anthony hopkins and tom jones. lyrics taken from careful listening.
I loved a man who's name was tom
He's strong as a bear and two yards long
I loved a man who's name was dick
He was big as a barrel and three feet thick
And i loved a man who's name was harry
Six feet tall and sweet as a cherry
But the one i love best, awake or asleep
Was little willie wee, and he's six feet deep
Oh tom, dick and harry were three fine men
And i'll never have such loving again
Little willie wee who took me on his knee
Little willie weasel was the man for me
Now men from every parish 'round
Run after me and roll me on the ground
But whenever i love another man back
Johnny from the hill, or sailing jack
I always think as they do what they please
Of tom, dick and harry who are tall as trees
But most i think when i'm by their side
Of little willie wee who downed and died
Oh tom, dick and harry were three fine men
And i'll never have such loving again
Little willie wee who took me on his knee
Little willie weasel was the man for me
Little willie weasel was the man for me
(the following is a reprise featured later)
Now when farmers boys on the first fair day
Come down from the hills to drink and be gay
Before the sun sinks, i lie there in their arms
For they're good bad boys from the lonely farms
And i always think as we tumble into bed
Of little willie wee, who's dead, dead, dead

Into the sunset once again together
After the darkness and the rain
Into the sunset we could ride forever
There goes that dream again
The dangers that we face
Are great if we let them be
No army could replace
The strength that you give to me
Don't let the wild woods lead us astray
And don't let us lose our way
Into the sunset once again together
After the darkness and and the rain
Into the sunset we could ride forever
There goes that dream again
Into the sunset once again together
After the darkness and and the rain
Into the sunset we could ride forever
There goes that dream again

I can't leave your love alone
A wicked wind beats at my window
Telling me that i'm no good
There's no life in this bleak desert
There's no life, without you
Broken head and empty heart
Shattered mind that's torn apart
I fall, i stumble into the night
I can't leave your love alone
I can't leave your love alone
Broken head and empty heart
Shattered mind that's torn apart
I fall, i stumble into the night

Hush little baby, gotta be strong
'cause in this world we are born to fight...
Be the best, prove them wrong
A winner's work is never done...
Reach the top, number one
Perfection...
Oh, perfection
You drive me crazy with perfection
I've worn my pride as my protection
Perfection...oh!
I was taught to be tough
The best that you can be ain't enough
Crack the whip, sacrifice
But i found out paradise had a price
I didn't know it then
But oh i know it now
You gotta work as hard as love
To make the love work out
You know this heart of mine
Has made some big mistakes
I guess that when it comes to love
I just don't know what i takes...
Chorus:
All my life i've been driven by perfection
Pushed it to the limit every day and night
Whoa...i've been driven by perfection
But nothing's perfect when love ain't right
Nothing's perfect when love ain't right...
Gave it all
Played my part
I gave everything i had but my heart
Worked so hard
Made a name
But the loneliness inside stays the same
When love is here today
And then it's gone today
You got a list of lovers lookin' like a resum?br> you gotta take some time
To make it something real
I guess that when it comes to love
I just don't know how to feel
(chorus)
Oh, perfection
You drive me crazy with perfection
I've worn my pride as my protection
I'm goin' crazy with perfection

Ha uma chance da gente se encontrar
Ha uma ponte pra nos dois em algum lugar
Quando homem e mulher
Se tocam num olhar
Nao ha forca que os separe
Ha uma porta que um de nos vai ter que abrir
Ha um beijo que ninguem vai impedir
Quando homem e mulher
Se deixam levar
E facil viver mais
Ha uma estacao
Onde o trem tem que parar
To na contramao
Te esperando pra voltar
Pra poder seguir
Sem limites pra sonhar
Pois e so assim
Que se pode inventar o amor
There's a story which is waiting for the heart to write
I'm going crazy here, just wanting you to close up the night
When the love in a woman
Finds the love in a man
There's nothing too precious to hold it
The door is open for the first time when your heart returns
In the silence of a kiss we will burn
When the heat in a woman
Finds the heat in a man
The flame burns forever
There'll come a time, my love, when the searching has to end
I'm on the wrong-way street, i need more than just a friend
And i'm standing here, just trying to touch the stars
Nothing else to lose when you're reaching for the infinite heart

40. _ Tire Track And Broken Hearts
(andrew lloyd webber/ jim steinman)
Producer for bonnie: jim steinman
Recorded in 1998 as part of the 'songs from whistle down the wind' project. the lyrics are from careful listening.
Another aimless day, another useless night
I want peroxide hair, i want some neon light
I got a new life waiting, i can't wait to begin it
The thing that gets me down, being young in this town
Is there's no future in it
I want a fine perfume, how 'bout a blue corvette?
If there's a slower death than living here and now
They haven't found it yet
I need a man who knows what i'm really worth
And i don't give a damn about life after death
But i gotta get some proof that there's a life after birth
Tire tracks and broken hearts, that's all we're leaving behind
It doesn't matter what we lose, it only matters what we're going to find
Tire tracks and broken hearts, let's get away from the past
So many ways to stay hungry baby, so many ways to go fast
I want a push-up bra, i want some satin sheets
Give me some real rich food, i want some succulent sweets
I want you by my side, you'll be all my own
I don't know what i want half the time, but i know know
That i don't want to spend another minute alone
Tire tracks and broken hearts, that's all we're leaving behind
It doesn't matter what we lose, it only matters what we're going to find
Tire tracks and broken hearts, let's get away from the past
So many ways to stay hungry baby, so many ways to go fast
(do do, da do do, da do do, da down down down)
Those good girls never know what they're missing
But us bad girls almost always do
And what we're missing most are the real good times
I want them bad and i want them now
I was born going faster than the limits allow
I want it bad and i want it now
We were born going faster than the limits allow
Faster than the limits allow
Right here, right now!
Tire tracks and broken hearts, that's all we're leaving behind
It doesn't matter what we lose, it only matters what we're going to find
Tire tracks and broken hearts, let's get away from the past
So many ways to stay hungry baby, so many ways to go fast
I wanna show you what i want you to do
Where and when and how
I want it bad and i want it now
We were born going faster than the limits allow
I wanna show you what i want you to do
Where and when and how
I want it bad and i want it now
We were born going faster than the limits allow
Tire tracks and broken hearts, that's all we're leaving behind
It doesn't matter what we lose, it only matters what we're going to find
Tire tracks and broken hearts, let's get away from the past
So many ways to stay hungry baby, so many ways to go fast

41. _ The Desert Is In Your Heart (with Sophie Arbaniti)
producer for bonnie: ?
Recorded in 1992 for sophie arbaniti 's album 'parafora', lyrics taken from
Careful listening.
First half of this song is in greek...so your guess is as good as mine - here's
The english part...
You move the veil from your face
And escape from the world that is hurting
You feel oppressed when you know
That the words are killing the meaning
There is no reason to hide in the dark
When you're far from the fighting
How can you dream in a world that is getting greyer than grey?
You don't have to hide your face, there's no disgrace
There's no harm in knowing that we're all a part of the human race
You have got to lift your head, think of what he said
You were born to know the truth, nothing but the truth, and what the truth is
Worth
Oh, the desert is in your heart
In your heart
The desert is in your heart
In your heart
It's so hard to try to forget
So many thinks you regret
You try to look back, but there's little to see
Just nothing can't take this pain from me
Oh, the desert is in your heart
In your heart
You don't have to hide your face
There's no disgrace
There's no harm in knowing we're all a part of the human race
You have got to lift your head, think of what he said
You were born to know the truth, nothing but the truth, and what the truth is
Worth
Oh, the desert is in your heart
In your heart
The desert is in your heart
In your heart
(greek)
In your heart
(greek)
The desert is in your heart
(greek)
The desert is in your heart

Producer for meatloaf & bonnie: jim steinman
Recorded in 1998 as part of the 'songs from whistle down the wind' project. bonnie duets with meatloaf on a reprise of 'tire tracks and broken hearts' at the end of the song. the lyrics are from careful listening.
(ooh if only, ooh if only)
If you listen to the night you can hear the darkness fall
I can barely stand the wait, i can barely stand at all
Come on closer to me now, like we're sharing the same skin
We gotta get out of this jail, we gotta let the future in
So many things in your life that you're bound to regret
Why didn't i do that? why didn't i do this?
So many chances you've lost that you never forget
Why didn't i make it? why didn't i take it right then?
The loneliest words you'll ever know if only, if only it was so
The emptiest words that there'll ever be
It could've been me, it could've been me
The loneliest words you'll ever know if only, if only it was so
The emptiest words that there'll ever be
It could've been me, it could've been me
You'll have to pay for it later
If you don't get it while it's going for free
Believe me, believe me
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
It's something that's always been so
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
And one of these nights i'm gonna show you that you already know
There's a feast waiting for you and you've never even gotten a taste
It's later than you think and a kiss is a terrible thing to waste
You shouldn't tremble when they touch there's no reason for these fears
It's a promise that was made, we've been promised this for years
I want to show you it all, what to do and where and how
'cause we'll never be as young as we are right now
Never be as young as we are right now
So many cries in the night that you try to ignore
Why didn't i do this? why didn't i do that?
So many un-answered prayers, so many un-opened doors
Why didn't i take it? why didn't i make it come true?
The loneliest words you'll ever know if only, if only it was so
The emptiest words that there'll ever be
It could've been me, it could've been me
The loneliest words you'll ever know if only, if only it was so
The emptiest words that there'll ever be
It could've been me, it could've been me
You'll have to pay for it later
If you don't get it while it's going for free
Believe me, believe me
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
It's something that's always been so
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
And one of these nights i'm gonna show you that you already know
There's a feast waiting for you and you've never even gotten a taste
It's later than you think and a kiss is a terrible thing to waste
There's a feast waiting for you and you've never even gotten a taste
It's later than you think and a kiss is a terrible thing to waste
Tire tracks and broken hearts, that's all we're leaving behind
It doesn't matter what we lose, it only matters what we're going to find
Tire tracks and broken hearts, that's all we're leaving behind
It doesn't matter what we lose, it only matters what we're going to find
Tire tracks and broken hearts, that's all we're leaving behind
(let's get away from the past)
It doesn't matter what we lose, it only matters what we're going to find
(so many ways to go fast)
Tire tracks and broken hearts, that's all we're leaving behind
It doesn't matter what we lose, it only matters what we're going to find
Tire tracks and broken hearts, that's all we're leaving behind
It doesn't matter what we lose, it only matters what we're going to find
There's a feast waiting for you and you've never even gotten a taste
It's later than you think and a kiss is a terrible thing to waste
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
A kiss is a terrible thing to waste
